	Title           : Data Structure for Security Suitabilities of
Cryptographic Algorithms (DSSC)

In many application areas it must be possible to prove the existence and
integrity of digital signed data.  This proof depends on the security
suitability of the cryptographic algorithms used to generate or verify
the digital signature.  Because algorithms can become weak over the
years, it is necessary to periodically evaluate these security
suitabilities.  When signing or verifying data, these evaluations must
be considered.  This document specifies a data structure that enables
automated analysis of the security suitabilities of cryptographic
algorithms.Conventions used in this document

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
