Summary |
0001355: Better wording to replace "decoding algorithm" |
|
Description |
In the Encryption Option Group, there's the text:
> Due to export restrictions on the decoding algorithm in some countries
The word "decoding" is inappropriate in that:
1. decoding is (strictly speaking) an unkeyed process (e.g. base64)
2. even if there's a key, encryption isn't necessarily the only functionality that may be restricted by the customs.
Some wording that I believe may be better include: "cipher algorithm" which specifically refers to encryption functionalities, or "cryptographic algorithm" which is completely generic. |
|
Desired Action |
Change "decoding" to "cipher" or "cryptographic". |
