[TLS] FW: New Version Notification for draft-jay-tls-omit-aead-explicit-nonce-extension-00.txt

[Jayaraghavendran k <[e-mail]>]

Hi All,

A new TLS extension draft for omitting the explicit nonce included in every record when AEAD ciphers are used has been proposed. This extension allows the Client Hello & Server Hello messages to negotiate a method for generating explicit nonce and thereby omit including it in every TLS/DTLS record.

Request your comments & suggestions.

Thanks!
 
Regards,
Jay

Abstract:
   With emergence of Internet of Things(IoT), DTLS is being widely
   considered as a protocol of choice for communication security in IoT
   applications. Further, AES_CCM has emerged as the cipher of choice in
   constrained environments. Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP),
   which is the application layer protocol for resource constrained
   environments, mandates DTLS as underlying security protocol and
   proposes AES_CCM based ciphers to be used with different key exchange
   methods. AEAD ciphers requires an explicit nonce of 8 bytes must be
   carried in each transmitted record.This document defines a TLS (and
   DTLS) extension, which will allow clients and servers to omit the
   explicit nonce sent in TLS/DTLS records.  This document can be
   considered as an extended version of "Transport Layer Security (TLS)
   Extensions : Extension Definitions". The extension defined in this
   document apply equally to both DTLS and TLS protocols.

                                                                                  


Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
