RFC 10015: Deprecating Obsolete Key Exchange Methods in TLS 1.2 and DTLS 1.2
Proposed Standard- N. Aviram
- July 2026
- IETF publication
- Security Area
Abstract
For (D)TLS 1.2, this document deprecates the use of two key exchanges, namely Diffie-Hellman (DH) over a finite field and RSA. It also discourages the use of static Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) cipher suites.
These prescriptions apply only to (D)TLS 1.2, since (D)TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 are deprecated by RFC 8996 and (D)TLS 1.3 either does not use the affected algorithms or does not share the relevant configuration options. (There is no DTLS version 1.1.)
This document updates RFCs 4162, 4279, 4346, 4785, 5246, 5288, 5289, 5469, 5487, 5932, 6209, 6347, 6367, 6655, 7905, 8422, and 9325 to either deprecate or discourage the use of cipher suites using the above key exchange methods in (D)TLS 1.2 connections.

RFC 9690: Use of the RSA-KEM Algorithm in the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS)
Proposed Standard- R. Housley
- S. Turner
- February 2025
- IETF publication
- Security Area
Abstract
The RSA Key Encapsulation Mechanism (RSA-KEM) algorithm is a one-pass (store-and-forward) cryptographic mechanism for an originator to securely send keying material to a recipient using the recipient's RSA public key. The RSA-KEM algorithm is specified in Clause 11.5 of ISO/IEC: 18033-2:2006. This document specifies the conventions for using the RSA-KEM algorithm as a standalone KEM algorithm and the conventions for using the RSA-KEM algorithm with the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) using KEMRecipientInfo as specified in RFC 9629. This document obsoletes RFC 5990.

RFC 7427: Signature Authentication in the Internet Key Exchange Version 2 (IKEv2)
Proposed Standard- T. Kivinen
- J. Snyder
- January 2015
- IETF publication
- Security Area
Abstract
The Internet Key Exchange Version 2 (IKEv2) protocol has limited support for the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA). The current version only includes support for three Elliptic Curve groups, and there is a fixed hash algorithm tied to each group. This document generalizes IKEv2 signature support to allow any signature method supported by PKIX and also adds signature hash algorithm negotiation. This is a generic mechanism and is not limited to ECDSA; it can also be used with other signature algorithms.

RFC 4758: Cryptographic Token Key Initialization Protocol (CT-KIP) Version 1.0 Revision 1
Informational- M. Nystroem
- November 2006
- IETF publication
Abstract
This document constitutes Revision 1 of Cryptographic Token Key Initialization Protocol (CT-KIP) Version 1.0 from RSA Laboratories' One-Time Password Specifications (OTPS) series. The body of this document, except for the intellectual property considerations section, is taken from the CT-KIP Version 1.0 document, but comments received during the IETF review are reflected; hence, the status of a revised version. As no "bits-on-the-wire" have changed, the protocol specified herein is compatible with CT-KIP Version 1.0.
CT-KIP is a client-server protocol for initialization (and configuration) of cryptographic tokens. The protocol requires neither private-key capabilities in the cryptographic tokens, nor an established public-key infrastructure. Provisioned (or generated) secrets will only be available to the server and the cryptographic token itself. This memo provides information for the Internet community.

RFC 4738: MIKEY-RSA-R: An Additional Mode of Key Distribution in Multimedia Internet KEYing (MIKEY)
Proposed Standard- D. Ignjatic
- L. Dondeti
- F. Audet
- P. Lin
- November 2006
- IETF publication
- Security Area
Abstract
The Multimedia Internet Keying (MIKEY) specification describes several modes of key distribution solution that address multimedia scenarios (e.g., SIP calls and Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) sessions) using pre-shared keys, public keys, and optionally a Diffie-Hellman key exchange. In the public-key mode, the Initiator encrypts a random key with the Responder's public key and sends it to the Responder. In many communication scenarios, the Initiator may not know the Responder's public key, or in some cases the Responder's ID (e.g., call forwarding) in advance. We propose a new MIKEY mode that works well in such scenarios. This mode also enhances the group key management support in MIKEY; it supports member-initiated group key download (in contrast to group manager pushing the group keys to all members). This document updates RFC 3830 with the RSA-R mode. [STANDARDS-TRACK]

RFC 4359: The Use of RSA/SHA-1 Signatures within Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Authentication Header (AH)
Proposed Standard- B. Weis

- Security Area
Abstract
This memo describes the use of the RSA digital signature algorithm as an authentication algorithm within the revised IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) as described in RFC 4303 and the revised IP Authentication Header (AH) as described in RFC 4302. The use of a digital signature algorithm, such as RSA, provides data origin authentication in applications when a secret key method (e.g., HMAC) does not provide this property. One example is the use of ESP and AH to authenticate the sender of an IP multicast packet. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
