Purpose:
TESLA, RFC4082, (Timed Efficient Stream Loss-Tolerant Authentication) uses the 
best practices for cryptography when published in 2005. This is dated, and any 
modern use of TESLA needs to adjust to current algorithms and methods.

New uses of TESLA, specifically targeting highly constrained communications, 
are emerging and modifying TESLA to fit. Some of this is occurring in closed 
communities with minimal best practices cryptographic review. These activities 
demonstrate the value of a modern, modified TESLA for new use cases produced in 
the IETF.

This process to update TESLA will leverage, but not be limited to, work 
occurring in the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in their 
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS, e.g. GPS) Satellite-based 
augmentation system (SBAS) authentication protocol. Note that ICAO would rather 
an appropriate SDO maintain change control of critical security technologies 
than manage this internally.

The main body of the update will focus on the general design of the updates 
with specific implementations captured in Appendices that will validate both 
the TESLA updates and the actual implementations.
