Title: LS on the work item related to QKD and TLS integration framework in SG13 Submission Date: 2026-03-18 URL of the IETF Web page: https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/2141/
To: Transport Layer Security (tls) From: ITU-T SG 13 Purpose: For action Please reply by 2026-05-29 Email Addresses --------------- From: [email protected] To: Joseph Salowey <[email protected]>,Sean Turner <[email protected]>,Deirdre Connolly <[email protected]> Cc: Christopher Inacio <[email protected]>,Transport Layer Security Discussion List <[email protected]>,Scott Mansfield <[email protected]>,Deirdre Connolly <[email protected]>,Joseph Salowey <[email protected]>,Sean Turner <[email protected]>,Deb Cooley <[email protected]> Response Contacts: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Technical Contacts: [email protected] Body: ITU-T Working Party 4/13 would like to inform you that Q16/13 is developing the new draft Recommendation related to QKD and TLS integration framework. Draft Recommendation ITU-T Y.QKD-TLS specifies the framework for integration of QKD and TLS, including overview, requirements, reference model and basic operation of QKD and TLS integration. The work item is intended to provide pre-shared keys (PSKs) from QKDNs for cryptographic applications based on TLS protocol to enhance its security against quantum computing cracking. The procedure of PSK integration into TLS follows IETF RFC8446. This information is for your comments and we look forward to collaborating with you in this area.
