Abstract

This document specifies extensions to the Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman over COSE (EDHOC) protocol to provide resistance against quantum computer adversaries by incorporating Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) mechanisms for both key exchange and authentication. It defines a Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM)-based authentication method to enable signature-free post-quantum authentication when PQC KEMs, such as NIST-standardized ML-KEM, are used.
