I slutet av Oktober kommer NIST att organisera en workshop om envägsfunktioner. Syftet är att diskutera hur attackerna mot NISTs hashfunktioner (SHA-familjen) och andra hashfunktioner bäst skall hanteras. Eller som NIST skriver i anmälan:
- Assess the status of the current NIST-approved hash functions, i.e., the SHA-256 and SHA-512 families in addition to SHA-1;
- Discuss short term actions to mitigate the potential problems with the various applications of the approved hash functions
- Discuss the conditions that would warrant an early transition away from any of the approved hash functions
- Discuss the potential replacement options for any of the approved hash functions
- Clarify the properties of unkeyed cryptographic hash functions required for different applications.
Kryptobloggen lovar att återkomma med information om resultaten från workshopen.
