CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 9979:02

Information technology - Security techniques - Procedures for the registration of cryptographic algorithms
This National Standard of Canada is equivalent to International Standard ISO/IEC 9979:1999. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the procedures for the registering of cryptographic algorithms and the form of register entries. This International Standard is for use by those wishing to make entries in the register and by the Registration Authority. The ISO/IEC register of cryptographic algorithms serves as a common reference point for the identification of cryptographic algorithms by a unique name. The register is also a repository of basic parameters identified with the register entry. The principal purpose of the register is to enable entities to identify and negotiate an agreed cryptographic algorithm.
