Summary:
|
This Technical Report provides a landscape of the standardization activities on hybrid approaches for migration towards quantum-safe algorithms or protocols within international, regional and national organizations. The hybrid approach that is covered by this technical report is for key exchange.
Hybrid approaches are for key exchange consist in generating a key exchange functionality by combining at least two different key exchange methods.
This Technical Report studies the possible way forward to accommodate Quantum Key Distribution protocols in the context of the hybrid approaches for key exchange. This compatibility is studied for generic hybrid key exchange and hybrid key exchange specific to certain communication protocols.
