A security policy based on recommendations by the German government
agency BSI (Bundesamt fuer Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik,
translated as <literal>agency for security in software
technology</literal>). The policy is based on the technical
recommendation ruleset <literal>TR 02102</literal>. The BSI TR
02102 standard is updated in regular intervals. This policy does
not allow the use of SHA-1 in signature algorithms (except DNSSEC
and RPM). The policy also provides some (not complete) preparation
for post-quantum encryption support in form of 256-bit symmetric
encryption requirement. The RSA parameters are accepted if larger
than 2047 bits, and Diffie-Hellman parameters are accepted if
larger than 3071 bits. This policy provides at least 128-bit
security, excepting the transition of RSA.
