A B S T R A C T


Speaker: IMr. Magnus Nyström
Technical Director, RSA Security
Presentation made on behalf of the IETF
Session 1: STANDARDIZATION OF TECHNOLOGIES FOR PROVISION OF CYBERSECURITY
Session Moderator: Mr Herbert Bertine, Chairman of ITU-T Study Group 17
Title of Presentation: IETF Security Work

The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has for a long period of time stressed the importance of security in its specifications. As an example, all IETF Request For Comments (RFC) documents, not just those dealing specifically with security, are obliged to contain a "Security Considerations" section, discussing possible security threats applicable to the RFC and countermeasures to them. This talk will discuss recent IETF security work, to what OSI layers it applies, and its business implications.
