Using Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM) Algorithms in the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS)

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 15
Abstract: The Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) supports key transport and key agreement algorithms. In recent years, cryptographers have been specifying Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM) algorithms, including quantum-secure KEM algorithms. This document defines conventions for the use of KEM algorithms by the originator and recipients to encrypt and decrypt CMS content. This document updates RFC 5652.
