This talk presents status of Russian national crypto standards and their support in OpenSource projects. In parallel to mainstream cryptography world, Russia has a strong school of crypto algorithms development, including block ciphers, hash functions, digital signature, etc. There is slow but ongoing trend of harmonizing GOST algorithms usage with the rest of Internet community.
This talk is dedicated to debunking several myths and presenting current state of support in open source project.


GOST Myth busting:
insecure, Russian-only, unnecessary to the rest of the World
Major areas: PKI, CMS, TLS, DNSSEC, XML DSIG
New areas of contribution:
rekeying, new crypto modes
OSS support:


OpenSSL
GnuTLS
LibreSSL
Linux kernel
libgcrypt
you name it
