ITU-T Recommendation X.1035 specifies a Password-authenticated key agreement protocol that ensures mutual authentication of two parties in the act of establishing a symmetric cryptographic key via Diffie-Hellman exchange. The use of Diffie-Hellman exchange ensures perfect forward secrecy – a property of a key establishment protocol that guarantees that compromise of a session key or long-term private key after a given session does not cause the compromise of any earlier session.

dbpprop:abstract
  • ITU-T Recommendation X.1035 specifies a Password-authenticated key agreement protocol that ensures mutual authentication of two parties in the act of establishing a symmetric cryptographic key via Diffie-Hellman exchange. The use of Diffie-Hellman exchange ensures perfect forward secrecy – a property of a key establishment protocol that guarantees that compromise of a session key or long-term private key after a given session does not cause the compromise of any earlier session. In X.1035, the exchange is protected from the man-in-the-middle attack. The authentication relies on a pre-shared secret (e.g. , password), which is protected (i.e. , remains unrevealed) to an eavesdropper preventing an off-line dictionary attack. The protocol can be used in a wide variety of applications including those with pre-shared secrets based on possibly weak passwords. X.1035 was approved on 13 February 2007 by ITU-T Study Group 17.
