MinimaLT: Minimal-latency Networking Through Better Security [pdf]

We describe here MinimaLT, a secure network protocol which delivers protected data on the rst packet of a typical client-server connection. MinimaLT provides substantial protections and is extraordinarily simple to configure and use. In particular, it provides cryptographic authentication of servers and users; encryption of communication; simplicity of protocol, implementation, and conguration; clean IP-address mobility; and DoS protections"

These are the kind of submissions that make HN worth visiting, for all its problems. ;)

We plan to soon release Ethos [experimental robust-security OS] and our Linux MinimaLT implementation as open source software.

(Side note: I am not sure why it was downvoted, I apologize if my question is offensive/problematic for people. )
