    <p><font face="Calibri">there is a German standard that I think we

    <p><font face="Calibri">As of January 1, 2019, all operators in the
        German energy sector (the energy and water industry market) are
        required to use the RSASSA-PSS algorithm for signing
        S/MIME-based communications with market participants, and the
        S/MIME certificates themselves must be signed with </font><font
        face="Calibri"><font face="Calibri">RSASSA-PSS. </font></font></p>
    <p><font face="Calibri">The relevant regulation can be found here,
        although in German only (I could not find an English
        translation): <br>
