Overview
Project Title	Space Data Link Security Protocol, Issue 2
Approval	Approved
Document Number	355.0
Charter	5.09 Space Data Link Security WG
Document Type	Blue
Description of Document	This Recommended Standard specifies a security protocol for CCSDS data links. The protocol provides a security header and trailer along with associated procedures that may be used with the CCSDS Telemetry, Telecommand, and Advanced Orbiting Systems Space Data Link Protocols to provide a structured method for applying data authentication and/or data confidentiality at the Data Link layer. Issue 2 of the document will include changes in order to 1) enable use of USLP frames, 2) reflect AES key length change for baseline mode, 3) reference the recently approved Blue Book for Extended Procedures, 4) clarify and complete a few specifications.
