Title : Post-quantum public key algorithms for the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol
Authors : Panos Kampanakis

Abstract:
This document defines hybrid key exchange methods based on classical
ECDH key exchange and post-quantum key encapsulation schemes. These
methods are defined for use in the SSH Transport Layer Protocol. It
also defines post-quantum public key authentication methods based on
post-quantum signature schemes. These methods are defined for use in
the SSH Authentication Protocol.

Note

EDNOTE: The goal of this draft is to start the standardization of PQ
algorithms in SSH early to mitigate the potential record-and-harvest
later with a quantum computer attacks. This draft is not expected to
be finalized before the NIST PQ Project has standardized PQ
algorithms. After NIST has standardized then this document will
replace TBD1, TBD3 with the appropriate algorithms and parameters
before proceeding to ratification.

EDNOTE: Discussion of this work is encouraged to happen on the IETF
WG Mailing List or in the GitHub repository which contains the draft:
https://github.com/csosto-pk/pq-ssh/issues .

*Change Log* [EDNOTE: Remove befor publicaton].
