Question: What is the expected outcome when a design authority completes standardization for cryptographic functions in a telecom network, specifically regarding deliverables to the governing body (3GPP)?
Option 1: Specification of the algorithm, Implementors test data, Design conformance test data, and Design and evaluation report are delivered to 3GPP for publication.
Option 2: Only the Specification of the algorithm is delivered to 3GPP, while other documents are kept internal for security.
Option 3: Implementors test data and Design conformance test data are shared publicly, but the Design and evaluation report remains confidential.
Option 4: The design authority publishes all documents independently without submitting them to 3GPP.
Explanation: In telecom security standards (e.g., 3GPP), standardizing cryptographic functions requires transparency and evaluation. This includes the algorithm's specification, test data for implementors and design conformance, and a detailed design and evaluation report. Submitting all these to the governing body (3GPP) ensures thorough review, validation, and publication for industry-wide implementation and security assurance.
