Same here in Kazakhstan. And we also use our home-made crypto algorithms (derived from USSR GOST), which are not present in popular open source libraries.


Are those different from Russian GOST algorithms? I think there’s a bunch of libraries (mostly forks of other popular open source libraries) for that.


I don't really know, sorry. We have our own identifiers for algorithms like СТ РК ГОСТ Р 34.10-2015, СТ РК ГОСТ Р 34.11-2015 and our local company (nitec.kz) creates SDK which includes implementations of those algorithms for Java and OpenSSL.

Whether they copied those algorithms from Russian ones, I don't know, never researched that.
