Future work

If there is sufficient interest, the 1363 Working Group will sponsor a study group to decide whether or not to request a PAR for a P1363.2a standard. This amendment would contain modifications to the techniques in 1363.2 and any new techniques for which there was a sufficiently compelling case for inclusion, as well as updating the security considerations (and if necessary removing existing techniques) in the light of current research.

Submissions for any follow-on project to 1363.2 will be collected here.
