(9882) ENCRYPT product and AES support?

Post by User » Sun Oct 24, 2004 9:26 am

Can you tell me if there are plans to support the new AES encryption standard FIPS 197(Rijndael) in the Encryption for Open VMA layered product?

Thanks

SSL V1.2 is expected to ship with OpenVMS V8.2, and it is expected to have AES support. Additionally, the version of CDSA that is expected to ship with V8.2 also has AES support.

The OpenVMS Wizard is not immediately aware of plans to incorporate AES encryption support into the OpenVMS Encryption product -- if that configuration is of interest due to local requirements, the OpenVMS Wizard would encourage you to please contact the customer support directly, and formally request the enhancement to that product.
