The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Using the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) with Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman over COSE (EDHOC)' (draft-ietf-emu-eap-edhoc-11.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the EAP Method Update Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Christopher Inacio and Deb Cooley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-emu-eap-edhoc/ Technical Summary The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), defined in RFC 3748, provides a standard mechanism for support of multiple authentication methods. This document specifies the EAP authentication method EAP- EDHOC, based on Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman Over COSE (EDHOC). EDHOC is a lightweight security handshake protocol, enabling authentication and establishment of shared secret keys suitable in constrained settings. This document also provides guidance on authentication and authorization for EAP-EDHOC. Working Group Summary Nothing controversial, but the document did take a long time to get here. WGLC feedback was incorpoated into the latest version. Document Quality There are at least two implementations. See https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/emu/VfSVDNj8hV5ckdL1_Vc2o0B-5zg/ Of those, one is public, the one from the authors’s (University of Murcia ) https://gitlab.com/franciscolopezg/eap-edhoc-testbed. Participants from the LAKE WG also reviews the document. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Renzo Navas. The Responsible Area Director is Christopher Inacio (formerly Paul Wouters). _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
