The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Suite B Cryptographic Suites for Secure Shell' (draft-igoe-secsh-suiteb-06.txt) as an Informational RFC This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Tim Polk. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-igoe-secsh-suiteb/ Technical Summary This document describes the architecture of a Suite B compliant implementation of the Secure Shell Transport Layer Protocol and the Secure Shell Authentication Protocol. Suite B secure shell makes use of elliptic curve Diffie-Hellmann (ECDH) key agreement, the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA), the Advanced Encryption Standard running in Galois Counter Mode (AES-GCM), two members of the SHA-2 family of hashes (SHA-256 and SHA-384), and X.509 certificates. Working Group Summary This document was not the product of an IETF working group. Document Quality Prototype implementations of this protocol have been developed. Commercial implementation is expected. Personnel Tim Polk is the responsible Area Director. The author is acting as the Document Shepherd. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
