Dear SAAG List Please be informed that we have just submitted an update of the I-D on Key Synchronization Protocol (KeySync). This document describes the pEp KeySync protocol, which is designed to perform secure peer-to-peer synchronization of private keys across devices belonging to the same user. https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync-01 The document is discussed on the medup@ietf.org list. The topic of "Private Key Synchronization among different devices of a user" has drawn quite some interest among the security experts in the IETF. If considered useful, we could offer a short presentation on the KeySync protocol incl. a screencast of our running code, e.g. in the SAAG WG. We have not requested a slot with the chairs (yet), but would do, if several people expressed their interest within the next few days. All the best Bernie ---------- Forwarded message ---------- [...] A new version of I-D, draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync-01.txt has been successfully submitted by Bernie Hoeneisen and posted to the IETF repository. Name: draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync Revision: 01 Title: pretty Easy privacy (pEp): Key Synchronization Protocol (KeySync) Document date: 2019-10-31 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 55 URL: https://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync-01.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync/ Htmlized: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync-01 Htmlized: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync Diff: https://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-hoeneisen-pep-keysync-01 Abstract: This document describes the pEp KeySync protocol, which is designed to perform secure peer-to-peer synchronization of private keys across devices belonging to the same user. Modern users of messaging systems typically have multiple devices for communicating, and attempting to use encryption on all of these devices often leads to situations where messages cannot be decrypted on a given device due to missing private key data. Current approaches to resolve key synchronicity issues are cumbersome and potentially unsecure. The pEp KeySync protocol is designed to facilitate this personal key synchronization in a user-friendly manner.
