Do we want rfc describing the final NIST standards? And for which? I'm ok with that — in this order of priority: ml-kem, ml-dsa, slh-dsa.
Probably yes, and in the order you described. For which algorithms do we want to assign codepoints once the NIST standards are out? Codepoints are cheap and use cases/rules are different, but especially with the hybrids, I'd encourage us to try to be disciplined and keep the list as short as we can for now, so that early adopters for which it doesn't matter, all choose the same thing. The DNS mechanism of draft-davidben-tls-key-share-prediction helps on the performance side, but it doesn't solve the duplicate engineering/validation if there are a dozen essentially equivalent KEMs. Leaving this question alone, at least for now. Do we want to standardise non-hybrid KEMs for TLS? I don't care for them yet, but others might. Absolutely yes. Do we need hybrid signatures for the TLS handshake? I don't see the use, but could be convinced otherwise. I don’t need/want them, but can’t/won’t forbid others from using them. They still don’t make sense to me. What is the future of AuthKEM? That's definitely a different e-mail thread. I hope it becomes a mainstream standard. Concretely, after ML-KEM is finished, I was planning to update draft-schwabe-cfrg-kyber to match it, and proposing to register a codepoint for a single ML-KEM-768 hybrid in draft-ietf-tls-hybrid-design.

Final standards are expected in Q1 2024. https://csrc.nist.gov/news/2023/three-draft-fips-for-post-quantum-cryptography I would like to have standard track TLS (and DTLS, QUIC) RFCs for ML-KEM and ML-DSA (all security levels standardized by NIST) as soon as possible after the final NIST standards are ready. 3GPP is relying almost exclusively on IETF RFCs for uses of public key cryptography (the exception is ECIES for IMSI encryption but that will likely use HPKE with ML-KEM in the future). Looking at the TLS document list, it seems severely lacking when it comes to ML-KEM, ML-DSA… The adopted draft-ietf-tls-hybrid-design is an informal draft dealing with the pre-standard Kyber. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-tls-hybrid-design/ AuthKEM is a quite big change to TLS https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wiggers-tls-authkem-psk/ This is not adopted, informal, and dealing with the pre-standard Kyber. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-kwiatkowski-tls-ecdhe-kyber/ What is the TLS WG plan for quantum-resistant algorithms? My current view is that I would like ML-KEM-512, ML-KEM-768, ML-KEM-1024, ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, and ML-DSA-87 registered asap. For hybrid key exchange I think X25519 and X448 are the only options that make sense. For hybrid signing, ECDSA, EdDSA, and RSA could all make sense.

It is a work item of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) WG of the IETF. Title: Hybrid key exchange in TLS 1.3 Authors: Douglas Stebila Scott Fluhrer Shay Gueron Name: draft-ietf-tls-hybrid-design-09.txt Pages: 23 Dates: 2023-09-07 Abstract: Hybrid key exchange refers to using multiple key exchange algorithms simultaneously and combining the result with the goal of providing security even if all but one of the component algorithms is broken. It is motivated by transition to post-quantum cryptography. This document provides a construction for hybrid key exchange in the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol version 1.3.
