Crypto/standard: Rijndael folgt DES

In der Nachfolge der angejahrten DES-Verschlüsselung hat
der belgische Algorithmus Rijndael [sprich: Reindol] vorläufig
das Rennen gemacht. Das National Standard Insitute der
USA testet Rijndael noch bis 2001.

A worldwide competition to develop a new encryption
technique that can be used to protect computerized
information ended today when Secretary of Commerce
Norman Y. Mineta announced the nation's proposed new
Advanced Encryption Standard.

Mineta named the Rijndael (pronounced Rhine-doll) data
encryption formula as the winner of a three-year competition
involving some of the world's leading cryptographers.

"Once final, this standard will serve as a critical computer
security tool supporting the rapid growth of electronic
commerce," Mineta said. "This is a very significant step
toward creating a more secure digital economy. It will allow e-
commerce and e-government to flourish safely, creating new
opportunities for all Americans," he said.

Computer scientists at the National Institute of Standards
and Technology, an agency of the Commerce Department's
Technology Administration, organized the international
competition in a drive to develop a strong information
encryption formula to protect sensitive information in federal
computer systems. Many businesses are expected to use
the AES as well.

The proposed selection of Rijndael as the AES will be
formally announced in the Federal Register in several
months, and NIST then will receive public comments on the
draft Federal Information Processing Standard for 90 days.

Researchers from 12 different countries worked on developing
advanced encoding methods during the global competition.
