Eidolon: network authentication separated from encryption

Overview

Most of the existing network protocols providing encryption, such as TLS (or older SSL), SSH, Noise Framework combine both authentication and encryption. However, in many cases the authentication is desired to be separate from the encryption layer, which may operate with just an ephemeral keys.

Eidolon is a simple binary authentication protocol for network connections abstracted from the encryption layer, which can be combined with virtually any encryption protocols of today or a future.

The library is a part of rust cyphernet suite.
