Technical Summary
This document describes the architecture of a Suite B compliant
implementation of the Secure Shell Transport Layer Protocol and the
Secure Shell Authentication Protocol. Suite B secure shell makes use
of elliptic curve Diffie-Hellmann (ECDH) key agreement, the elliptic
curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA), the Advanced Encryption
Standard running in Galois Counter Mode (AES-GCM), two members of the
SHA-2 family of hashes (SHA-256 and SHA-384), and X.509
certificates.
Working Group Summary

Document Quality
Prototype implementations of this protocol have been developed.
Commercial implementation is expected.
