Get Ryan's feedback on TLS #5

Open indolering opened 9 years ago

indolering commented 9 years ago

@ryancdotorg has requested time to give feedback on the "tls" field spec in d/. We should wait for his feedback before finalizing.

Hello @ryancdotorg, any news on this?

indolering commented 9 years ago

FWIW, I would like to enforce a minimum of two hashes with 128 bit security level (256 + 256 bit output). SHA-3 should be done sometime in the fall.

It should be noted that two hashes do not add up to a combined 256 bit level of security, the security is roughly as good as the strongest hash.

Where is the doc?

@indolering I'm not 100% sure what you're proposing. If necessary can you start another issue for that?

I don't know what I'm proposing either, I've just been nerding out on hash functions for a few weeks and thought it might be tangentially relevant. FWIW the current FIPS 202 draft (SHA-3 standard for SHA-2 drop-ins) is basically final, it is literally awaiting the signature of the Secretary of Commerce.

I'm against any requirement that isn't already in the DANE spec.
