Camellia was evaluated as having many points in common with AES such as security and performance.
	CRYPTREC (Cryptography Research & Evaluation Committees) Evaluation project on the e-government recommended cipher list by CRYPTREC Advisory Committee and CRYPTREC Evaluation Committee	Camellia is reported as an excellent secure encryption scheme, and was officially recognized as an e-government recommended cipher.
	TV-Anytime Forum An association that established the international standard for digital storage broadcast	Camellia was specified as an approved cipher in Bi-directional Metadata Delivery Protection. This is the same standard as that established by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute).

2006	ISO/IEC (International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission)	PSEC-KEM is adopted for the first time as the ISO/IEC international standard cipher (ISO/IEC18033-2). It was chosen because of its recognition as an encryption scheme with excellent security and performance.
2005	IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force)	PSEC-KEM was certified as the IETF standard cipher (Proposed Standard) for XML security URIs (RFC4051). This is the first domestic encryption algorithm to be certified.
2003	NESSIE (New European Schemes for Signature, Integrity and Encryption) Selection project on the European recommendation of strong cryptographic primitives by EU (European Union)	PSEC-KEM is reported as an encryption scheme with excellent security and performance, and was selected as the primary European recommended cipher (RSA-KEM is secondary recommended).
2003	CRYPTREC (Cryptography Research & Evaluation Committees) Evaluation project on the e-government recommended cipher list by CRYPTREC Advisory Committee and CRYPTREC Evaluation Committee	PSEC-KEM is reported as an excellent secure encryption scheme, and was officially recognized as an e-government recommended cipher.

	Standardization Organization	Notes	Deliberation Status
Currently being proposed	IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers)	PSEC-KEM is being proposed to the encryption scheme in IEEE P1363	Deliberation

[ESIGN]

Year	Standardization Organization	Notes Regarding Standardization
2005	IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force)	ESIGN was certified as the IETF standard signature (Proposed Standard) for XML security URIs (RFC4051).
2002	IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers)	ESIGN was selected as the signature scheme in IEEE P1363a.
2001	Law Concerning Electronic Signatures and Certification Services	ESIGN was certification in the guidelines for accreditation of designated certification services based on Law Concerning Electronic Signatures and Certification Services (expired in 2002). Currently, NTT does not recommend this specification.
1999	ATM Forum International non-profit organization that establishes the international standard for the ATM network.	ESIGN was selected in the ATM security specification for the digital signature schemes on ATM networks. Currently, NTT does not recommend this specification.
