AES encryption how to transport IV
问题 I understand that unique IV is important in encrypting to prevent attacks like frequency analysis. The question: For AES CBC encryption, whats the importance of the IV? has a pretty clear answer explaining the importance of the IV. Would there be any security holes in sending the IV in clear text? Or would it need to be encrypted with the same public/private key that was used to send the symmetric key? If the IV needs to be sent encrypted, then why not generate a new symmetric key each time
