To: Transport Layer Security (tls) From: IEEE 802.11 Purpose: For action Please reply by 2026-07-01 Email Addresses --------------- From: Robert Stacey <[email protected]> To: Joseph Salowey <[email protected]>, Sean Turner <[email protected]>, Deirdre Connolly <[email protected]> Cc: Deb Cooley <[email protected]>,Sean Turner <[email protected]>,Joseph Salowey <[email protected]>,Transport Layer Security Discussion List <[email protected]>,Deirdre Connolly <[email protected]>,Christopher Inacio <[email protected]> Response Contacts: Robert Stacey <[email protected]>, Peter Yee <[email protected]> Technical Contacts: Peter Yee <[email protected]> Body: Dear Deirdre Connolly, Joseph A. Salowey, and Sean Turner, The IEEE 802.11 working group and the IEEE 802 standards committee approved the attached liaison to the IETF TLS WG at our 2026 March 802 plenary session. The IEEE 802.11 working group has a project, P802.11bt, where the scope is to “extend IEEE 802.11 security to support algorithms for post-quantum cryptography (PQC).” The IEEE 802.11 Working Group would like to express support for publication of draft-ietf-tls-mlkem as an RFC with its definition of key establishment options that use pure ML-KEM. We would further request that the IETF look at updating EAP-TLS once draft-ietf-tls-mlkem is published as this is one of the mechanisms that IEEE P802.11bt will use. Please contact me as chair of the IEEE 802.11 Working Group and Peter Yee as IEEE 802.11 IETF Liaison Officer for further information. Sincerely, Robert Stacey Chair, IEEE 802.11 WLAN Working Group [email protected] Peter Yee IETF Liaison, IEEE 802.11 WLAN Working Group [email protected] Attachments: Liaison communication to IETF regarding draft-ietf-tls-mlkem https://www.ietf.org/lib/dt/documents/LIAISON/liaison-2026-04-02-ieee-802-11-tls-liaison-communication-to-ietf-regarding-draft-ietf-tls-mlkem-attachment-1.pdf _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
