Abstract

We specify a new authentication and key establishment protocol. The Secure Lightweight Authentication Mechanism (SLAM) allows network entities to mutually authenticate and establish shared secret keys for protection of application data. We specify confidential and integrity protected messages for application level security (e.g. GSS-API protected messages). This proposal is based on an earlier version of lightweight Kerberos.
