Categorical interpretations of some key agreement protocols

TL;DR

This paper interprets existing key agreement protocols using category theory, providing a new framework that enables the construction of many novel protocols.

Contribution

It introduces a categorical framework for understanding key agreement protocols and proposes a method to generate new protocols within this framework.

Findings

Categorical interpretations of known protocols

A systematic method for constructing new protocols

Potential for expanding key agreement protocol design

Abstract

We give interpretations of some known key agreement protocols in the framework of category theory and in this way we give a method of constructing of many new key agreement protocols.
