Technical Summary
This ID contains algorithm identifiers for use with CMS. It includes
the OIDs for the following digest algorithms: SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384,
and SHA-512. It also includes the OIDs for the following signature
algorithms: DSA with SHA-224 and SHA-256; RSA with SHA-224, SHA-256,
SHA-384, and SHA-512; RSA-KEM; ECDSA with SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384,
and SHA-512.
Working Group Summary
This ID was lightly discussed on the mailing list. It basically just
lists OIDs so there's not much to discuss.
Document Quality
Some of the OIDs in this ID have been implemented by many. Some of the
other OIDs are included for completeness.
Personnel
Blake Ramsdell is the document Shepherd. Tim Polk is the responsible
Security Area AD.
