To date, the Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation and Aerospace Industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan has decided to postpone the implementation of the planned changes of the National Certification Center of the Republic of Kazakhstan (hereinafter – NCA RK) in terms of the transition to the cryptographic standard ST RK GOST R 34.10-2015 and the rejection of the authentication key on the RSA algorithm until October 1, 2022 due to the fact that the information systems of government agencies, despite advance notifications of planned changes, NCA RK do not have time to make appropriate improvements in their IS until June 27, 2022 year.

In connection with the above, the update of the information system of the NCA of the Republic of Kazakhstan within the framework of these changes is postponed until October 1, 2022.
