Introduction to ps-locale-de_DE-14.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512 Software

This SHA512-verified cryptographic package provides comprehensive German (de_DE) language localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0 environments, addressing compliance requirements under Germany’s Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and EU GDPR regulations. The software implements DIN 5008-compliant date/time formats (ISO 8601:2024-DE) and supports German-specific diacritics (ä, ö, ü, ß) across administrative interfaces and endpoint devices.

Released on January 15, 2024, this COP file synchronizes 21,384 localized interface elements – 18% more components than previous German localization packages. The package adheres to Unicode 15.0 standards for Central European character encoding.
