Cryptographic Standards and Guidelines Development Process
Learn about NIST's process for developing crypto standards and guidelines in NISTIR 7977 and on the project homepage. NIST now also has a Crypto Publication Review Project for reviewing cryptographic publications that were published more than five years ago.
