Announcing Approval of Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 46-3, Data Encryption Standard

The Secretary of Commerce has approved Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 46-3, Data Encryption Standard, which supersedes FIPS 46-2. FIPS 46-3 provides for the use of the Triple DES as specified in American National Standard (ANSI) X9.52. NIST expects that Triple DES will provide Federal agencies with strong protective measures against associated risks until the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is available, probably in 2001.
