Cryptography standards Cryptography standards The ABA digital signature guidelines are a set of guidelines published on 1 August 1996 by the American Bar Association (ABA) Section of Science and Technology Law. The authors are members of the Section's Information Security Committee. The document was the first overview of principles and a framework for the use of digital signatures and authentication in electronic commerce from a legal viewpoint, including technologies such as certificate authorities and public key infrastructure (PKI). The guidelines were a product of a four-year collaboration by 70 lawyers and technical experts from a dozen countries, and have been adopted as the model for legislation by some states in the US, including Florida and Utah. ...more on Wikipedia about "ABA digital signature guidelines"
The Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP)' is an Information Technology (IT) security accreditation program for cryptographic modules produced by private sector vendors who seek to have their products certified for use in government departments and regulated industries (such as financial and health-care institutions) that collect, store, transfer, share and disseminate "sensitive, but not classfied" information. Product certifications under the CMVP are performed in accordance with the requirements of Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 140-2 ( FIPS PUBS 140-2 ** ) "Requirements for Cryptographic Modules" (2001). ...more on Wikipedia about "CMVP"
There are a number of standards related to cryptography. Standard algorithms and protocols provide a focus for study; standards for popular applications attract a large amount of cryptanalysis. ...more on Wikipedia about "Cryptography standards"
CRYPTREC is the Cryptography Research and Evaluation Committee set up by the Japanese Government to evaluate and recommend cryptographic techniques for government and industrial use. It is comparable in many respects to the European Union's NESSIE project and to the Advanced Encryption Standard process run by NIST in the US. ...more on Wikipedia about "CRYPTREC"
FIPS 140 ( Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 140) is a United States federal standard that specifies security requirements for cryptography modules. As of March 2005, the current version of the standard is FIPS 140-2, issued on 25 May 2001. ...more on Wikipedia about "FIPS 140"
The Federal Information Processing Standard ( FIPS) Publication 140-2 , called Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules, is a United States security standard used to certify cryptographic modules, published in 2001. ...more on Wikipedia about "FIPS 140-2"
IEEE P1363 is an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standardization project for public key cryptography. It includes specifications for: ...more on Wikipedia about "IEEE P1363" http://www.shortopedia.com Is Good For You.
ISO 19092 Financial Services - Biometrics - Part 2: Message syntax and cryptographic requirements is an ISO standard that describes the techniques, protocols, cryptographic requirements, and syntax for using biometrics as an identification and verification mechanism in a wide variety of security applications in the financial industry. ...more on Wikipedia about "ISO 19092-2"
NESSIE (New European Schemes for Signatures, Integrity and Encryption) was a European research project funded from 2000–2003 to identify secure cryptographic primitives. The project was comparable to the NIST AES process and the Japanese Government-sponsored CRYPTREC project, but with notable differences from both. In particular, there is both overlap and disagreement between the selections and recommendations from NESSIE and CRYPTREC (as of the August 2003 draft report). The NESSIE participants include some of the foremost active cryptographers in the world, as does the CRYPTREC project. ...more on Wikipedia about "NESSIE"
Suite B is a set of public key cryptography algorithms based on elliptic curve cryptography promulgated by the US National Security Agency. Suite B was announced on 16 February, 2005. It includes: ...more on Wikipedia about "NSA Suite B"
PBKDF2 (Password-Based Key Derivation Function) is a key derivation function that is part of RSA Laboratories' Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) series, specifically PKCS #5 v2.0, also published as Internet Engineering Task Force's RFC 2898. It replaces an earlier standard, PBKDF1, which could only produce derived keys up to 160 bits long. ...more on Wikipedia about "PBKDF2"
In cryptography, PKCS refers to a group of Public Key Cryptography Standards devised and published by RSA laboratories in California. RSA Data Security Inc was assigned the licensing rights for the patent on the RSA asymmetric key algorithm and acquired the licensing rights to several other key patents as well (eg, the Schnorr patent). ...more on Wikipedia about "PKCS"
The Public-Key Infrastructure X.509 group, or PKIX, is a working group of the Internet Engineering Task Force dedicated to creating RFCs and other standards documentation on issues related to public key infrastructure (PKI) based on X.509 certificates. PKIX was established in Autumn 1995. ...more on Wikipedia about "PKIX"
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an XML standard for exchanging authentication and authorization data between security domains, that is, between an identity provider and a service provider. SAML is a product of the OASIS Security Services Technical Committee. ...more on Wikipedia about "SAML"
In cryptography, the Standards for Efficient Cryptography Group (SECG) is an international consortium founded by Certicom in 1998. The group exists to develop commercial standards for efficient and interoperable cryptography based on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC). ...more on Wikipedia about "SECG"
XML Encryption is a specification that defines how to encrypt the content of an XML element. ...more on Wikipedia about "XML Encryption"
XML Signature (also called "XMLDsig") is a W3C recommendation that defines an XML syntax for digital signatures. Functionally, it has much in common with PKCS#7 but is more extensible and geared towards signing XML documents. It is used by various Web technologies such as SOAP, SAML, and others. ...more on Wikipedia about "XML Signature"
