Dear CESG Members,
Conditions for approval of CESG-P-2018-05-004 Approval to release CCSDS 354.0-R-1, Symmetric Key Management (Red Book, Issue 1) for CCSDS Agency review have been disposed to the satisfaction of the AD(s) who voted to approve with conditions. The Secretariat will now proceed with CMC polling to authorize release for Agency review.

Daniel,
I understand that you address my question on the validity of B2 and B3 by softening the statement to talk about "guidelines".
BTW it looks you have a typo in the proposed rewording: on who to combine ==> on how to combine
I think this is OK.
For my second comment, if you mean that you propose to change Section A1.2 to state that "CCSDS recommends cryptographic algorithms for this purpose in reference [BNEW]." , then this is OK.
I also guess that Tom will take care of removing B10 never called in the document,.
I copy Tom and Howie for finalising the matter.
Regards
Gian Paolo

Hi Gippo,
Regarding your comments on the Symmetric Key Management Book.
I would propose to Tom to:
------------------
(1) Change "This recommended practice specifies symmetric key management to support cryptographic operations. It does not specify any cryptographic operations for the protection of information or data. Recommendations exist for cryptographic operations and how these can be combined with symmetric key management can be found in “The Application of CCSDS Protocols to Secure Systems” (reference [B2]) and the CCSDS Security Architecture for Space Data Systems” (reference [B3]). "
to
"This recommended practice specifies symmetric key management to support cryptographic operations. It does not specify any cryptographic operations for the protection of information or data (those are specified in [BNEW]). Guidelines on who to combine and integrate symmetric key management with cryptographic operations can be found in “The Application of CCSDS Protocols to Secure Systems” (reference [B2]) and the CCSDS Security Architecture for Space Data Systems” (reference [B3])."
(2) Add Cryptographic Algorithms BB to the list of references ([BNEW] in the text above)
-----------
Please note that the Security Architecture was just reconfirmed and the “The Application of CCSDS Protocols to Secure Systems” is currently under revision.
Does the above address your comments? Please note that Tom has asked for confirmation by COB today.
Cheers
Daniel

I intend to issue a slew of CMC polls on Friday,
and it would be nice if the CMC poll to approve
release of the Symmetric Key Management Red Book
(at least) were among them (in order that the
review can get underway in early June). So if you
could cajole Gian Paolo into agreeing to move
forward by ESA COB Friday, it would be helpful.
