End-to-End Secure Objects for Media over QUIC Transport rev 04 lands on the IETF Datatracker
This document specifies an end-to-end authenticated encryption scheme for application objects transmitted via Media over QUIC (MoQ) Transport. The scheme enables original publishers to securely share a symmetric key with end subscribers, ensuring that MoQ relays are unable to decrypt object contents. Additionally, subscribers can verify the integrity and authenticity of received objects, confirming that the content has not been modified in transit.
