Post-quantum public key algorithms for the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol

Abstract

This document defines hybrid key exchange methods based on classical ECDH key exchange and post-quantum key encapsulation schemes. These methods are defined for use in the SSH Transport Layer Protocol. It also defines post-quantum public key authentication methods based on post-quantum signature schemes. These methods are defined for use in the SSH Authentication Protocol.

Keywords: key exchange, Secure Shell (SSH), post-quantum cryptography
