Bundled Authenticated Key Exchange: A Concrete Treatment of (Post-Quantum) Signal's Handshake Protocol

K Hashimoto, S Katsumata, T Wiggers - Cryptology ePrint Archive, 2025 - eprint.iacr.org
The Signal protocol relies on a special handshake protocol, formerly X3DH and now
PQXDH, to set up secure conversations. Prior analyses of these protocols (or proposals for …

Shadowfax: Combiners for Deniability

P Gajland, V Hwang, J Janneck - Cryptology ePrint Archive, 2025 - eprint.iacr.org
As cryptographic protocols transition to post-quantum security, most adopt hybrid solutions
combining pre-quantum and post-quantum assumptions. However, this shift often introduces …
