Abstract

   This document specifies the conventions for using the Camellia
   encryption algorithm for encryption with the Cryptographic Message
   Syntax (CMS).

1.  Introduction

   This document specifies the conventions for using the Camellia
   encryption algorithm [CamelliaSpec] for encryption with the
   Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) [CMS].  The relevant object
   identifiers (OIDs) and processing steps are provided so that Camellia
   may be used in the CMS specification (RFC 3369, RFC 3370) for content
   and key encryption.

   Note:  This work was done when the first author worked for NTT.
