HAVE ORGANIZATIONS THAT REPRESENT THE COMPUTER HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE INDUSTRIES ASKED FOR A NEW ALGORITHM TO EXPORT?

0

Both the Software Publishing Association and the American Electronics Association, along with other industry groups, have asked that the DES algorithm be made available for easy export. The DES algorithm is already available all over the world. DES is classified as a munition by the US government and cannot be exported easily. The DES algorithm is thought by most cryptography professionals to be nearing the end of it’s useful life and new exportable algorithms that can be implemented in software need to be standardized. The Skipjack algorithm does not answer this need.
