NIST's Computer Security Division has recently made the following
information available:
1. A report of the Second Modes of Operation Workshop, which was held in
the Santa Barbara area on August 24, is available at
http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/modes/workshop2/index.html.
2. A change notice for FIPS 186-2, Digital Signature Standard, is available
at http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/tkdigsigs.html. This change notice
specifies recommended key sizes, suggested modifications to the random
number generators (RNGs) defined in the FIPS, and recommends a method for
using the RNGs in the FIPS and in the change notice for general purpose
applications.
3. The Key Management Schemes document for the Key Management Workshop is
available at http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/kms/workshop2-page.html. The
Key Mgmt. Guideline for the workshop will be available in a few days. The
workshop is scheduled for November 1-2 at NIST. Registration is REQUIRED
because of enhanced security procedures (i.e., so that attendees can be
admitted to the NIST campus). Please see
http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/kms/workshop2-page.html for registration
information.
