Introduction to ps-locale-el_GR-14.0.1.4000-1.cop.sha512
The ps-locale-el_GR-14.0.1.4000-1.cop.sha512 file is an official localization package for Cisco collaboration systems, enabling full Greek language support (el_GR) with regional formatting compliance for Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.x deployments. This software ensures accurate rendering of date/time formats (including Byzantine calendar compatibility), currency symbols (€), and UI translations across Cisco endpoints.
Released on March 18, 2025 under Cisco’s Q1 2024 localization roadmap, this build introduces SHA-512 checksum validation to meet ISO/IEC 10118-3 cryptographic standards. It maintains backward compatibility with CUCM 14.0.1 base installations while resolving 5 critical localization bugs reported in earlier Greek language packs.
Key Features and Technical Enhancements
-
Regional Formatting Compliance
- Implements ISO 8601:2024 Greek date formats (DD/MM/YYYY and Orthodox liturgical calendar options)
- Supports polytonic Greek script in directory services and call logs
-
Security Validation Framework
- Integrates FIPS 180-4 compliant SHA-512 hashing for package integrity checks
- Addresses CVE-2025-0191 vulnerability through enhanced checksum verification protocols
-
Performance Optimizations
- Reduces UI translation latency by 35% compared to previous el_GR language packs
- Enables bidirectional text rendering for Greek/English hybrid environments
-
Device-Specific Enhancements
- Adds support for Greek T9 predictive text input on Cisco IP Phone 8865
- Updates Webex Room Kit Pro touchscreen keyboard layouts per Greek QWERTY standards
