Title: A Lightweight Talk on Cryptographic Standardization at ISO

Abstract: 
Cryptographic standards are set by multiple standardization bodies:
ISO (the International Standardization Organization) issues general 
cryptogrpahic standards, the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force)
deals with communication standards (such as TLS and IPsec), while ETSI
(European Telecommunication Standardization Institute) defines the
mobile communication's security.

This talk covers well known failures in the standardization process
of cryptographic standards, with emphasis on the symmetric-key
primitives considered in ISO. Most notably, we will tell the story of
the efforts to standardize GOST (Magma) and the recent efforts of
the NSA to put Simon and Speck into the lightweight cryptographic
standard (ISO/IEC 29192).

This is not a joint work in the sense of work, but it does require a lot
of work, and many people have joined their efforts. Most notably,
Tomer Ashur and Atul Luykx.
