1. Introduction to ps-locale-no_NO-12.5.1.7000-1.cop.sha512

This digitally signed COP file provides comprehensive Norwegian language support for Cisco’s enterprise collaboration platforms, specifically designed to meet Norway’s regulatory requirements. Certified under Cisco Collaboration System Release 12.5.1 SU7, it implements:

  • ​Bokmål character encoding​​ for administrative interfaces and call detail records
  • ​GDPR compliance enhancements​​ aligned with Norway’s Personal Data Act (Personopplysningsloven)
  • ​Time zone synchronization​​ with Central European Time (CET/CEST)

Optimized for CUCM 12.5.1 deployments, it supports organizations requiring ISO 639-1 “no” language code compliance under Norway’s National Cybersecurity Strategy 2025 framework.
