Internet-Draft draft-ietf-mls-architecture-12.txt is now available. It is a work item of the Messaging Layer Security (MLS) WG of the IETF. Title: The Messaging Layer Security (MLS) Architecture Authors: Benjamin Beurdouche Eric Rescorla Emad Omara Srinivas Inguva Alan Duric Name: draft-ietf-mls-architecture-12.txt Pages: 49 Dates: 2024-03-03 Abstract: The Messaging Layer Security (MLS) protocol (I-D.ietf-mls-protocol) provides a Group Key Agreement protocol for messaging applications. MLS is meant to protect against eavesdropping, tampering, message forgery, and provide Forward Secrecy (FS) and Post-Compromise Security (PCS). This document describes the architecture for using MLS in a general secure group messaging infrastructure and defines the security goals for MLS. It provides guidance on building a group messaging system and discusses security and privacy tradeoffs offered by multiple security mechanisms that are part of the MLS protocol (e.g., frequency of public encryption key rotation). The document also provides guidance for parts of the infrastructure that are not standardized by MLS and are instead left to the application. While the recommendations of this document are not mandatory to follow in order to interoperate at the protocol level, they affect the overall security guarantees that are achieved by a messaging application. This is especially true in the case of active adversaries that are able to compromise clients, the delivery service, or the authentication service.
