Concluded WG TCP Increased Security (tcpinc)

The WG drafts on the encryption negotiation option (TCP-ENO) and unauthenticated encryption mechanism (tcpcrypt) have completed WG Last Call - the RFC publication requests for both drafts are expected to be submitted by the end of the Chicago meeting week or earlier.  The TLS-based work for tcpinc has been postponed because finishing TLS 1.3 is higher priority for the TLS experts.

A draft on (sockets) API extensions, primarily for TCP-ENO, has been adopted by the WG - the chairs are looking for additional interest in working on that draft, as well as interest in additional implementation(s) of TCP-ENO and tcpcrypt.

The WG drafts on the encryption negotiation option (TCP-ENO) and unauthenticated encryption mechanism (tcpcrypt) are making good progress.  A few small scope issues are being discussed with cryptographers at CFRG.  WG Last Call on both drafts is anticipated shortly after the Seoul IETF meeting week.  The TLS work for tcpinc has been postponed because finishing TLS 1.3 is higher priority for the TLS experts.

A draft on (sockets) API extensions, primarily for TCP-ENO, has been adopted by the WG - the chairs are looking for additional interest in working on that draft, as well as interest in additional implementation(s) of TCP-ENO and tcpcrypt.

Changed milestone "Submit unauthenticated key exchange mechanism and extensions to current TCP to IESG for publication as Experimental", set due date to December 2016 from July 2016

The WG drafts on the encryption negotiation option (TCP-ENO) and unauthenticated encryption mechanism (tcpcrypt) are making good progress.  WG Last Call on both drafts is anticipated before the Seoul IETF meeting week.  The TLS work for tcpinc has been postponed because finishing TLS 1.3 is higher priority for the TLS experts, but additional interest in use of TCP-ENO is appearing for negotiation of TLS privacy - this will be discussed in the Berlin meeting.

A draft on (sockets) API extensions, primarily for TCP-ENO, has been adopted by the WG - the chairs are looking for additional interest in working on that draft, as well as interest in additional implementation(s) of TCP-ENO and tcpcrypt.

Changed milestone "Adopt first WG document on unauthenticated key exchange mechanism and extensions to current TCP", added draft-ietf-tcpinc-tcpcrypt, draft-ietf-tcpinc-tcpeno, draft-ietf-tcpinc-use-tls to milestone, removed draft-bittau-tcpinc-tcpeno, draft-rescorla-tcpinc-tls-option, draft-bittau-tcpinc-tcpcrypt from milestone

Changed milestone "Submit unauthenticated key exchange mechanism and extensions to current TCP to IESG for publication as Experimental", set state to active from review, accepting new milestone
