    Because I always want to identify the solution when we point to the problem:

  • How should I encrypt files for sharing over the internet?
    5 projects | /r/crypto | 30 Oct 2022
    If you're not looking to share files but instead need a full communications protocol, the question gets more complex. TLS is the most commonly used encryption layer, and lots of other protocols use TLS to encrypt their traffic. In the rare cases where it's not suitable, the Noise Protocol Framework works to design a secure protocol for the necessary uses.

    TLS Client Authentication formalizes this, as do several patterns in the Noise protocol framework.
  • When To Roll Your Own X
    4 projects | /r/programming | 18 Sep 2022
    As you now know, I have implemented a whole cryptographic library with a similar API to Libsodium’s. In addition I’ve worked on authenticated key exchange (similar to Noise), as well as PAKE (symmetric and augmented). And I’ve realised that the whole NaCl family of libraries, including NaCl, Libsodium, TweetNaCl, and Monocypher, are all too low-level for regular people to use safely.
  • Tim Cook revealed the real reason Apple won’t add RCS to the iPhone

    Many other messaging apps use a separate client/server encryption protocol for this purpose. Several use TLS. The WhatsApp Security Whitepaper notes they use the Noise protocol when the client is a mobile device.
  • Mega: Malleable Encryption Goes Awry

    What are real world implementations of the Noise Protocol? https://github.com/noiseprotocol/noise_spec/blob/v34/noise.m...

    Quick search shows WireGuard protocol, but I am not sure if how much of the WireGuard protocol is the same as the Noise Protocol.
