This tools might be of interest for implementors of DNSSEC, e.g. the folks wanting to distibute control over the future Root Zone primary Key Signing Keys between the RIRs and ICANN/IANA.
The new version should hopefully be ready for implementation. ----- Forwarded message from IETF I-D Submission Tool ----- > From: IETF I-D Submission Tool <idsubmiss...@ietf.org> > Message-Id: <20090309204424.ad5f73a6...@core3.amsl.com> > Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2009 13:44:24 -0700 (PDT) > Subject: New Version Notification for draft-mcgrew-tss-02 A new version of I-D, draft-mcgrew-tss-02.txt has been successfuly submitted by David McGrew and posted to the IETF repository. Filename: draft-mcgrew-tss Revision: 02 Title: Threshold Secret Sharing Creation_date: 2009-03-09 WG ID: Independent Submission Number_of_pages: 26 Abstract: Threshold secret sharing (TSS) provides a way to generate N shares from a value, so that any M of those shares can be used to reconstruct the original value, but any M-1 shares provide no information about that value. This method can provide shared access control on key material and other secrets that must be strongly protected. This note defines a threshold secret sharing method based on polynomial interpolation in GF(256) and a format for the storage and transmission of shares. It also provides usage guidance, describes how to test an implementation, and supplies test cases.
