Do you have some articles about these protocols? I can't find anything on
your webpage, and a newbie (like myself) can't distinguish between well
designed and badly designed protocols. Can you recommend such a collection
of well designed protocols for various purposes? With implementation caveats
if possible?
(I haven't looked at it in a long time - is Handbook of Applied Cryptography
a good reference for this?)
Thanks,
Marcel
