The area of authentication that we are interested in can be divided into these categories:

[x] user-to-machine,
[x] machine-to-user,
[ ] machine-to-machine (#22),
[ ] user-to-user (through machine).

User--machine and machine--user authentication are discussed in overview. The machine-to-machine authentication is basically the main topic of ~~fverif~~protocols, that should move here.

Machine-to-machine might also be covered by keyauth.

These are usually chained when using crypto and involving hardware.

User-to-user (through-machine) will probably require distance bounding in some cases.
