Information by oid_info

Note: This standard was withdrawn on 6 Sep 2005 to reflect the reduced role for the Register of Cryptographic Algorithms now that the four-part International Standard on encryption, ISO/IEC 18033, has been published.

The form of the object identifiers is one of the following:
- algorithm only: {iso standard 9979 xxx(n)};
- algorithm and a mode of operation: {iso standard 9979 xxx(n) yyy(m)}
where xxx(n) are the name and number allocated to the registered algorithm and yyy(m) are the name and number allocated to the mode of operation.
Note: There is no need for the same value of m to be used when the same mode of operation is used with two different algorithms. In general, for each algorithm, values of m are to be assigned consecutively, starting from 1.
Common modes of operation are (a registered algorithm which supports these modes of operation may number them as follows, although this standard does not require this number to be used):

• electronic-code-book = 0
• cipher-feedback = 1
• cipher-block-chaining = 2
• output-feedback = 3
• additive-stream-cipher = 4
• black-box = 5
