                         Pink Sheets.  Issue 1.1.  June 2021.

DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION:  This Recommended Standard 
specifies a security protocol for CCSDS data 
links.  The protocol provides a security header

Data Link Protocols to provide a structured 
method for applying data authentication and/or 
data confidentiality at the Data Link layer. The 
current draft update adds specifications for 
Unified Space Data Link Protocol support and adds 
normative reference to Space Data Link Security Protocol—Extended Procedures.

The due date for receipt of Agency review
