A cipher needs an initialization vector (IV) when it is used in certain modes
such as CBC or GCM. Under the same secret key, IVs should be unique and ideally unpredictable.
Given a secret key, if the same IV is used for encryption, the same plaintexts result in the same ciphertexts.
This lets an attacker learn if the same data pieces are transfered or stored,
This lets an attacker learn if the same data pieces are transferred or stored,
