Expand description
The handshake module implements the handshake part of the protocol.
This module also implements additional anti-DoS mitigation,
by including a timestamp in each handshake initialization message.
Refer to the module’s documentation for more information.
A successful handshake returns a NoiseStream which is defined in the
stream module.
Structs
- In a mutually authenticated network, a client message is accompanied with a timestamp. This is in order to prevent replay attacks, where the attacker does not know the client’s static key, but can still replay a handshake message in order to force a peer into performing a few Diffie-Hellman key exchange operations.
- The Noise configuration to be used to perform a protocol upgrade on an underlying socket.
Enums
- Noise handshake authentication mode.
