What standards are replacing DES?
Many DES users realized years ago that it was nearing the end of its useful life. Financial standards committee X9F1 has been working on a Triple-DES standard for financial use. Internet Engineering Task Force standards specify the use of Triple-DES, RC2, and RC4 as well as DES. NIST has started the process of developing an “Advanced Encryption Standard” or AES, which is designed to last for a decade or more after its adoption. It will be years from now before the AES is ready for public use.
