Key exchange/signing via NFC #125

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I wondered how practical it would be to enable key exchange and signing via 
NFC/beaming. It seems that it would be a quick and relatively secure way to 
exchange public keys in person (with the protocol being for the people involved 
to check that their own key's hash appears on the recipient's screen).

(also I'd mark this as an Enhancement instead of defect, but wasn't clear if I 
could do that)

When public keys have been exchanged, some kind of "visual hash" should be 
displayed on both screens, based on the exchanged key(s), so that MITM won't be 
undetected.
