1. Introduction to ps-locale-he_IL-15.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512
This cryptographic hash-verified localization package enables native Hebrew (Israel) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 15.0.1 deployments. Designed for Middle Eastern enterprises, the COP file provides full right-to-left (RTL) text rendering of administrative interfaces, user portals, and system notifications compliant with Israel’s Ministry of Communications (MoC) 2024 regulations. The “.cop.sha512” extension confirms FIPS 180-4 compliant integrity validation through SHA-512 hashing, meeting strict security protocols for government and financial sector implementations.
Officially released on May 9, 2025, as part of CUCM 15.0.1 Extended Support Release 5 (ESR5) updates, this build addresses Israel’s Communications Law (Amendment 12) requirements for localized telecom interfaces. The package supports locale-specific configurations including Hebrew calendar synchronization (Hijri/Gregorian dual display), ILS currency formatting (₪ symbol positioning), and keyboard layouts optimized for Hebrew QWERTY input devices.
