- Description of Working Group:
-
- The goal of the working group is to update and standardize the popular
- SSH protocol. SSH provides support for secure remote login, secure file
- transfer, and secure TCP/IP and X11 forwardings. It can automatically
- encrypt, authenticate, and compress transmitted data. The working
- group will attempt to assure that the SSH protocol
-
- o provides strong security against cryptanalysis and protocol attacks,
-
- o can work reasonably well without a global key management or
- certificate infrastructure,
-
- o can utilize existing certificate infrastructures (e.g., DNSSEC,
- SPKI, X.509) when available,
-
- o can be made easy to deploy and take into use,
-
- o requires minimum or no manual interaction from users,
-
- o is reasonably clean and simple to implement.
-
- The resulting protocol will operate over TCP/IP or other reliable but
- insecure transport. It is intended to be implemented at the application
- level.
-
- Goals and Milestones:
-
- Feb 97 Submit Internet-Draft on SSH-2.0 protocol
-
- Apr 97 Decide on Transport Layer protocol at Memphis IETF.
-
- Aug 97 Finalize upper level protocols at Munich IETF.
-
- Sep 97 Submit Internet-Drafts to IESG to consider for publication as
- RFCs.
-
- Dec 97 Meet at DC IETF meeting.
