[TICTOC] TICTOC WGLC of draft-ietf-tictoc-security-requirements

[Karen O'Donoghue <[e-mail]>]

This message initiates a two week TICTOC Working Group Last Call on 
advancing:

Title : Security Requirements of Time Synchronization Protocols in 
Packet Switched Networks
Author(s) : Tal Mizrahi
Filename : draft-ietf-tictoc-security-requirements-04.txt
Pages : 32
Date : 2013-02-07

http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tictoc-security-requirements/

as an Informational RFC. Substantive comments and statements of support 
for advancing this document should be directed to the mailing list. 
Editorial suggestions can be sent directly to the authors. This last 
call will end on 12 March 2013.

I realize this WGLC comes right before the IETF; however, this document 
has been around for a long time, and it is my hope that this can be done 
expeditiously.

Regards,
Karen

Abstract: As time synchronization protocols are becoming increasingly 
common and widely deployed, concern about their exposure to various 
security threats is increasing. This document defines a set of security 
requirements for time synchronization protocols, focusing on the 
Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and the Network Time Protocol (NTP). This 
document also discusses the security impacts of time synchronization 
protocol practices, the time synchronization performance implications of 
external security practices, the dependencies between other security 
services and time synchronization.
