Simultaneous Authentication of Equals

aliases:

  • SAE

A password-based authentication and password-authenticated key agreement method.

SAE is a variant of the Dragonfly Key Exchange. Dragonfly was based on the Diffie-Hellman key exchange that didn't have any authentication, so SAE added authentication by making the key based on a derivation of the pre-shared key and the MAC addresses of both peers.
