Some examples of FIPS Codes for geographical areas include FIPS 10-4 for country codes or region codes and FIPS 5-2 for state codes.

In 2008, NIST eliminated several other FIPS code standards, including those for countries ( FIPS 10-4 ), U. S. states ( FIPS 5-2 ), and counties ( FIPS 6-4 ).

Despite the criticisms, DES was approved as a federal standard in November 1976, and published on 15 January 1977 as FIPS PUB 46, authorized for use on all unclassified data.

While the RSA patent expired in 2000, there are patents in force covering certain aspects of ECC technology, though some argue that the Federal elliptic curve digital signature standard ( ECDSA ; NIST FIPS 186-3 ) and certain practical ECC-based key exchange schemes ( including ECDH ) can be implemented without infringing them.

Although careful programmers were coming to realize that use of incompatible extensions caused expensive portability problems, and were therefore using programs such as The PFORT Verifier, it was not until after the 1977 standard, when the National Bureau of Standards ( now NIST ) published FIPS PUB 69, that processors purchased by the U. S. Government were required to diagnose extensions of the standard.

The Digital Signature Algorithm ( DSA ) is a United States Federal Government standard or FIPS for digital signatures.

The standard was expanded further in 2000 as FIPS 186-2 and again in 2009 as FIPS 186-3.

The standard superseded FIPS PUB 5-1 on May 28, 1987, and was superseded on September 2, 2008, by ANSI standard INCITS 38: 2009.

The FCC assigned additional numeric codes used with the EAS for territorial waters of the U. S., but these were not part of the FIPS standard.

On October 2, 2000, NIST announced that Rijndael had been selected as the proposed AES and started the process of making it the official standard by publishing an announcement in the Federal Register on February 28, 2001 for the draft FIPS to solicit comments.

In 1980, the NIST published a national standard document designated FIPS PUB 81, which specified four so-called block cipher modes of operations, each describing a different solution for encrypting a set of input blocks.

The SAME codes are mostly aligned along county lines using the standard US Government FIPS county codes.

OpenSSL is one of the few open source programs to be involved with validation under the FIPS 140-2 computer security standard by the National Institute of Standards and Technology's ( NIST ) Cryptographic Module Validation Program ( CMVP ).

However, to ensure the long-term robustness of applications that use hash functions, there is a competition to design a replacement for SHA-2, which will be given the name SHA-3 and become a FIPS standard around 2012.

NUTS is thus in some extent similar to the ISO 3166-2 standard, as well as the FIPS 10-4 standard of the United States.

:: 3-key Triple DES ( Permitted ' for the time being ' if used as specified in FIPS Pub 46-3, and if specified as a de facto standard )

The Federal Information Processing Standard ( FIPS ) Publication 140-2, FIPS PUB 140-2, is a U. S. government computer security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules.

The FIPS 140-2 standard is an information technology security accreditation program for cryptographic modules produced by private sector vendors who seek to have their products certified for use in government departments and regulated industries ( such as financial and health-care institutions ) that collect, store, transfer, share and disseminate sensitive but unclassified ( SBU ) information.

The combination of FIPS 200 and NIST Special Publication 800-53 requires a foundational level of security for all federal information and information systems.
