FIPS 186-2

Target entity: FIPS 186-2
Context triple: [Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm, standardizedIn, FIPS 186-2]

• A. FIPS 198-1
  FIPS 198-1 is a U.S. federal information processing standard that specifies the security requirements and implementation details for the HMAC (Hash-based Message Authentication Code) algorithm.
• B. FIPS 140
  FIPS 140 is a U.S. government standard that specifies security requirements for cryptographic modules used to protect sensitive information in computer and telecommunications systems.
• C. FIPS 201
  FIPS 201 is a U.S. federal standard that defines the requirements and architecture for secure, interoperable personal identity verification (PIV) credentials for federal employees and contractors.
• D. FIPS 200
  FIPS 200 is a U.S. federal standard that establishes minimum security requirements for federal information and information systems, forming a core part of the government’s information security framework.
• E. NIST SP 800-56B
  NIST SP 800-56B is a NIST Special Publication that provides recommendations for cryptographic key establishment using RSA-based key transport and key agreement schemes.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
