The NSA has always been intimately involved in U.S. cryptography standards – it is, after all, expert in making and breaking secret codes. So the agency's participation in the NIST (the U.S
Jun 30, 2020 NSA Publishes Recommendations on Securing IPsec VPNs The NSA also points out that the ISAKMP/IKE and IPsec policies should be configured with recommended settings, otherwise they would expose the entire VPN to attacks. Per CNSSP 15, as of June 2020, minimum recommended settings for ISAKMP/IKE are Diffie-Hellman group 16, AES-256 encryption, and SHA-384 hash, while those for IPsec are AES-256 Advanced Encryption Standard: Understanding AES 256 Jul 29, 2019 ISO blocks NSA's latest IoT encryption systems amid murky

Learn about NIST’s encryption standards and why they matter. The National Institute of Standards and Technology is an organization aimed at helping US economic and public welfare issues by providing leadership for the nation’s measurement and standards infrastructure. Then there are the details about how the NSA proactively fights encryption online, including attending meetings of groups that create the standards for encryption, like the Internet Engineering Although most of the NSA's work on encryption is secret, some information has been published in the past, either as part of the NSA's participation in standards processes, or after an algorithm has been declassified. Below is an (incomplete) overview of NSA-developed approved algorithms.
