IEEE P1363


IEEE P1363 is an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standardization project for public-key cryptography. It includes specifications for:

The chair of the working group as of October 2008 is William Whyte of NTRU Cryptosystems, Inc., who has served since August 2001. Former chairs were Ari Singer, also of NTRU (1999-2001), and Burt Kaliski of RSA Security (1994-1999).

This specification includes key agreement, signature, and encryption schemes using several mathematical approaches: integer factorization, discrete logarithm, and elliptic curve discrete logarithm.

This document includes a number of password-authenticated key agreement schemes, and a password-authenticated key retrieval scheme.

This project was approved September 2005; First complete draft available at [1], May 2008 (pdf).
