Dan, OK, but I guess I’m thinking that if we move away from the 4-way handshake, the time to do that is with the transition to use Authentication frames, per 802.11bi. Why do the 11bi restructuring, and then pile on the switch away from the 4-way, in series? Mark From: Harkins, Dan <daniel.harkins@xxxxxxx> Hi Mark, My initial take is that it would not interact. I guess we could discuss how things might eventually converge but the bi draft, like all the classical crypto stuff, is still using the 4-way handshake. I do not think the PQC protocols should use that architecture anymore. regards, Dan. -- "the object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane." – Marcus Aurelius On 4/10/25, 5:18 PM, "mark.hamilton2152@xxxxxxxxx" <mark.hamilton2152@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Dan, I think it would be helpful to understand how this would interact with the 802.11bi direction for key derivation in Authentication frames.

Mark From: *** IEEE STDS-802-11 List *** <STDS-802-11@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> On Behalf Of Harkins, Dan --- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector --- Hello, I uploaded a slide deck, 11-25/0631r0, to the PQSG folder on mentor regarding some ideas on how to clean up 802.11's security architecture with new post quantum protocols. Please take a look. Comments welcome and please put this on the agenda deck for our 21 April 2025 teleconference. regards, Dan. -- "the object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane." – Marcus Aurelius To unsubscribe from the STDS-802-11 list, click the following link: https://listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=STDS-802-11&A=1 To unsubscribe from the STDS-802-11 list, click the following link: https://listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=STDS-802-11&A=1 |
