This matters because FIPS validations are valid for five years, but will have their lifetime limited to NIST’s SHA1 sunset date if they allow SHA1. If you do a FIPS validation now, you’ll likely get a certificate in ~2 years, which then won’t be valid for 5, but only 3, because the build included support for SHA1. -- Clemens Lang RHEL Crypto Team Red Hat _______________________________________________ Gcrypt-devel mailing list Gcrypt-devel@gnupg.org https://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gcrypt-devel
