Title : TCP Opportunistic Security (OPSEC) Option

The TCP Opportunistic Security (OPSEC) option enables cooperating
peers to opportunistically negotiate the use of an end to end
security protocol on a per connection basis. The negotiated protocol
is used to transparently secure application data for the life of the
connection, providing protection against all passive and some active
attacks. Security protocols may operate anonymously or make
opportunistic use of available key material. Backwards compatibility
with non-OPSEC-aware hosts is maintained, thereby permitting
incremental deployment of this mechanism.Comments and Discussion
