This is the only one I have seen that is a method, not a new key exchange algorithm. It is understandable that you could have missed this from the title which misstates the topic. A much better title would be "Mixing Preshared Keys in IKEv2 for Postquantum Resistance". > This is premature. Disagree. The method described in the document has been well-discussed in the IPsecME for years, getting good cryptographic review. > The co-chair of the CFRG, Kenny Paterson, said so awhile back. I don't think that's what he said in the slides you posted, but I've Cc'd him so he can reply. The slides are about picking new post-quantum algorithms; what is described in the draft is a method for mixing in preshared secrets with current algorithms. --Paul Hoffman _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
