NIST Validation Of OpenSSL Algorithms 19
An anonymous reader submits "On Monday, May 10, 2004,
the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) posted a notice
that the AES, DES, 3DES, DSA and SHA-1 algorithms for OpenSSL have
been validated. The validation notices can
be found at the following NIST sites: Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Algorithm (Certification # 146);
Data Encryption Standard
(DES) Validated Implementations (Cert # 258); Triple Data Encryption Algorithm (TDEA, a.k.a. "Triple
DES"): (Cert # 256); Digital Signature Algorithm
(DSA) Validation System: (Cert # 108); Secure
Hash Algorithm (SHS) Validation System: (Cert # 235). Successful
validation of these algorithms does NOT mean that
OpenSSL has received FIPS 140-2 validation, yet. The overall FIPS 140-2 validation effort for OpenSSL is still in process. Additional
updates will be posted on the OSSI web site, www.oss-institute.org.
NIST validation of these
algorithms does, however, signify a major milestone in OSSI's efforts
to
secure the FIPS 140-2 validation for OpenSSL. Please post any
questions
that you might have to questions@oss-institute.org."
