The IESG has approved the following document: - 'AES-GCM Authenticated Encryption in Secure RTP (SRTP)' (draft-ietf-avtcore-srtp-aes-gcm-17.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Audio/Video Transport Core Maintenance Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Barry Leiba, Ben Campbell and Alissa Cooper. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-avtcore-srtp-aes-gcm/ Technical Summary: This document defines how AES-GCM and AES-CCM Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data algorithms can be used to provide confidentiality and data authentication in the SRTP protocol. Identifiers for using these with DTLS-SRTP, MIKEY and Security Descriptions are also being registered in the appropriate IANA registries. Working Group Summary: There has been no controveries around this document. It has rather lacked in contribution due to difficult intersection between RTP and Security. Document Quality: This has gotten close to minimal level of reviews from the WG. Jonathan Lennox reviewed it and was especially helpfull dealing with Header Extensions. Can also thank Woo-Hwan Kim for his reviews. The changes after WG last call, has been verified by the WG consensus call on the changes. In this call one additional reviewer (Michael A Peck) confirmed suitability to publish. Mocana's Keytone already implements AES-GCM-256 in SRTP, thou an earlier draft version. NSA plans to include cipher suits from this document into secure communication profiles for US governmental use. Because of that it is believed that several implementations are under way. Personnel: Magnus Westerlund is the document shepherd. Responsible AD is Ben Campbell.
