Introduction to ps-locale-ar_KW-14.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512
This cryptographic software component provides official Arabic (Kuwait) language localization for Cisco’s enterprise collaboration platforms, including Webex 14.0.1 and Unified Communications Manager deployments. Designed for Middle Eastern organizations requiring right-to-left (RTL) text support, it enables full localization of administrative interfaces, compliance notifications, and user portals in Modern Standard Arabic with Kuwaiti dialect adaptations.
Released under Cisco’s Q2 2025 language pack roadmap, version 14.0.1.2000-1 incorporates SHA-512 hashing verification for file integrity validation. The .cop format ensures seamless integration with Cisco’s Component Orchestration Protocol in hybrid cloud environments, supporting both on-premises and Webex Hybrid Services deployments.
