Overview
Project Title
Revise Cryptographic Algorithm BB
Approval
Draft
Document Number
352.0-B
Charter
1.02 Security Working Group
Document Type
Blue
Description of Document
Revise the Cryptographic Algorithms BB to add post-quantum algorithms per the international post-quantum selection processes (NIST, ISO), specifically KEM and signatures. This will provide a basis for the Triple KEM-based asymmetric key exchange project for SDLS.
Applicable Patents
There are no patent issues for this technology that are known by the CCSDS community
Patent Comments
There are patents related to FIPS-203 but those patents have been bought out by NIST enabling free usage of the technology.
Survey of Similar Standards
Documents or Projects
Undertaken in Other Bodies
and elsewhere in CCSDS
NIST is publishing FIPS-203 document which documents the post-quantum algorithms which will be captured in the BB revision. Classic McEliece and FrodoKEM will be standardized as ISO 18033-2.

Resource Comments
This work would entail pink sheet revisions to the existing BB but since new algorithms are being added, will require interoperability testing.
