Cryptography StandardsThere 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. Encryption standards Hash standards Digital signature standards Public-key infrastructure (PKI) standards - X.509 Public Key Certificates
Wireless Standards - Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP, severely flawed and superceded by WPA)
- Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) better than WEP, a 'pre-standard' partial verision of 802.11i
- 802.11i a.k.a. WPA2, uses AES and other improvements on WEP
- A5/1 and A5/2 cell phone encryption for GSM (both broken)
U.S. Government Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) - FIPS PUB 31 Guidelines for Automatic Data Processing Physical Security and Risk Management 1974
- FIPS PUB 46-3 Data Encryption Standard (DES) 1999
- FIPS PUB 73 Guidelines for Security of Computer Applications 1980
- FIPS PUB 74 Guidelines for Implementing and Using the NBS Data Encryption Standard 1981
- FIPS PUB 81 DES Modes of Operation 1980
- FIPS PUB 102 Guideline for Computer Security Certification and Accreditation 1983
- FIPS PUB 112 Password Usage 1985, defines 10 factors to be considered in access control systems that are based on passwords
- FIPS PUB 113 Computer Data Authentication 1985, specifies a Data Authentication Algorithm (DAA) based on DES, adopted by the Department of Treasury and the banking community to protect electronic fund transfers.
- FIPS PUB 140-2 Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules 2001, defines four increasing security levels
- FIPS PUB 171 Key Management Using ANSI X9.17 (ANSI X9.17-1985) 1992, based on DES
- FIPS PUB 180-2 Secure Hash Standard (SHS) 2002 defines the SHA family
- FIPS PUB 181 Automated Password Generator (APG) 1993
- FIPS PUB 185 Escrowed Encryption Standard (EES) 1994, a key escrow system that provides for decryption of telecommunications when lawfully authorized.
- FIPS PUB 186-2 Digital Signature Standard (DSS) 2000
- FIPS PUB 190 Guideline for the Use of Advanced Authentication Technology Alternatives 1994
- FIPS PUB 191 Guideline for the Analysis of local area network Security 1994
- FIPS PUB 196 Entity Authentication Using Public Key Cryptography 1997
- FIPS PUB 197 Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 2001
- FIPS PUB 198 The Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC) 2002
