KEM-based Authentication for IKEv2 with Post-quantum Security

groupnone stateactive pages24 rev03 expires2026-09-03 canonicalhttps://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wang-ipsecme-kem-auth-ikev2/
This draft specifies a new authentication mechanism, called KEM (Key Encapsulation Mechanism) -based authentication, for the Internet Key Exchange Protocol Version 2 (IKEv2). This is motivated by the fact that some post-quantum KEMs (like ML-KEM) are more efficient than post-quantum signature algorithms (like ML-DSA).
