Hi Viet, There is no plan to add authentication to ZeroMQ core. However we are developing a data plant layer above ZeroMQ, which will do secure distribution over multicast as well as TCP. It will use request-response to do key distribution, and then clients will use those keys to unlock streams of data.
The data plant layer will provide a stream-based pubsub fabric with tools such as fork, clone, arbitrate, failover, delay, log, etc. It will eventually connect to feed handlers to provide a ticket plant. This new product will be open source but we're developing it off-line initially, i.e. with a closed community of participants. If you are interested in getting access to it early, drop me a line.
