- Level: 3
- Chapter: V11 Cryptography
- Section: V11.6 Public Key Cryptography
- Source: 0x20-V11-Cryptography.md
Description
Verify that approved cryptographic algorithms are used for key exchange (such as Diffie-Hellman) with a focus on ensuring that key exchange mechanisms use secure parameters. This will prevent attacks on the key establishment process which could lead to adversary-in-the-middle attacks or cryptographic breaks.
