Date: Wed, 09 Dec 1998 17:07:56 -0700 To: cryptography@c2.net From: Michael Paul Johnson <mpj@ebible.org> I was asked: >We have been reviewing the paper you published on your "Diamond Block >Cipher." From what we have reviewed so far, it appears to address a number >of problems we here at XXXXXXX are facing. One question that I have not seen >referenced, pertains to its' conformity with American National Standards >Institute (ANSI) standards. It is currently a Corporate requirement that >any encryption algorithm used in the Bank, or any of its' related >companies, meet the ANSI standards. Does your algorithm meet those >standards, and is there any documentation we can review that would be >pertinent to our internal review of your algorithm. Does anyone know what ANSI standards this guy is talking about? Should I tell him to wait for the certification of AES (which isn't going to be Diamond since I never went to the trouble to submit it, but whatever it is should solve almost any real-world problem Diamond does)? _______ Michael Paul Johnson http://ebible.org
