My concern is that the first example "limited bandwidth" is something I hear a lot about, and I don't want folk to be able to say "see, this document says we're a special case" |

(IKEv2 and IPSec are not ideal for every application environment, but what other warm recommendation do we have for automated key management for applications?) |

In general, automated key management SHOULD be used. Occasionally, relying on manual key management is reasonable; we propose some guidelines for making that judgment." This is a BCP -- I hope you're doing more than "proposing" guidelines :-). "provide"? "offer"? - "Manual key management is used to distribute such values." s/is/can be/ ? - "In particular, the protocol associated with an automated key management technique will confirm liveness of the peer, protect against replay, ..." s/will/can/ ? - "Examples of automated key management systems include IPsec IKE and Kerberos." add commas - "In general, automated key management SHOULD be used to establish session keys. This is a very strong "SHOULD", meaning the justification is needed in the security considerations section of a proposal that makes use of manual key management." Grades of SHOULD will be difficult to referee. I suggest: "A proposal MUST use automated key management to establish session keys unless adequate justification is provided in the Security Considerations section for the use of manual key management." - "When manual key management is used, long-term shared secrets MUST be unpredictable "random" values ..." I would take out "unpredictable". First it's redundant with "random" and second we have the same problems generating unpredictable values as we do random ones. |
