Abstract:

   This document defines combinations of US NIST ML-KEM in hybrid with
   traditional algorithms RSA-OAEP, ECDH, X25519, and X448.  These
   combinations are tailored to meet security best practices and
   regulatory guidelines.  Composite ML-KEM is applicable in any
   application that uses X.509 or PKIX data structures that accept ML-
   KEM, but where the operator wants extra protection against breaks or
   catastrophic bugs in ML-KEM.
