NIST is currently accepting nominations for lightweight cryptographic algorithms that can be used in constrained environments where traditional NIST standards are not suitable. The agency is seeking algorithms that can operate on limited devices unable to handle current cryptographic standards.
The nomination process will be open until February 25, 2019. Detailed submission instructions and requirements are available on the NIST Lightweight Cryptography project page. This initiative aims to create a portfolio of algorithms tailored for constrained applications and environments.
