New Features:
- Encryption Standards Enhancement
To strengthen security, the following restrictions applied to all new imported PGP keys.
Hash Algorithms
Older algorithms like MD5 and SHA1 were deprecated. All keys and signatures now use modern, NIST-approved algorithms, including SHA3-512, SHA3-256, SHA512, SHA384, SHA256, and SHA224.
Encryption & Decryption
The minimum required key sizes were increased for the following algorithms:
- RSA, ElGamal, and DSA: The new minimum is 2000 bits.
- ECDSA and EDDSA: The new minimum is 250 bits.
