Course Overview

Technical workshop for CDN architects and streaming platform engineers. Covers TLS 1.3 post-quantum hybrid key exchange at edge scale, ML-KEM deployment in CDN stacks, certificate lifecycle migration for millions of endpoints, and streaming protocol security under PQC transition.

Curriculum

Course content is structured into sessions below. Each session is configurable to your organisation's environment, threat model, and objectives.

# Session Topics
1 CDN and Streaming Cryptographic Architecture Where asymmetric cryptography sits in media delivery
2 TLS 1.3 Post-Quantum Hybrid Modes for High-Throughput Delivery ML-KEM integration in edge stacks and origin servers
  • TLS 1.3 hybrid key exchange: X25519+ML-KEM-768 handshake mechanics and overhead
  • QUIC and HTTP/3 implications: connection migration, 0-RTT, and PQC key sizes
  • Edge node TLS termination at scale: per-connection memory, CPU, and latency budgets
Break
3 Certificate Lifecycle and PKI Migration at CDN Scale Managing millions of certificates across edge infrastructure
  • FIPS 203 (ML-KEM), FIPS 204 (ML-DSA), FIPS 205 (SLH-DSA): algorithm selection for certificate signing versus key exchange
  • Certificate chain depth and size impact on TLS handshake latency (ML-DSA-65 certificates are ~3.3 KB versus ~800 bytes for ECDSA)
  • OCSP stapling and CRL distribution with larger PQC signatures; hybrid certificate strategies during transition
4 Streaming Protocol Security and DRM Transport Encryption HLS, DASH, CMAF, and content key delivery under PQC
  • Content key encryption in licence delivery (Widevine, PlayReady): RSA dependency and ML-KEM replacement path
  • Segment encryption (AES-128-CTR, CBCS): symmetric key distribution via PQC-protected channels
  • Manifest integrity and CDN cache poisoning: hash-based signature options for playlist authentication
Break
5 Performance Benchmarking and Migration Sequencing Measured impact on real CDN workloads
  • Published benchmarks: Cloudflare ML-KEM-768 deployment data (handshake overhead, connection throughput)
  • Prioritisation framework: origin-to-edge first, then edge-to-client, then API endpoints
  • Hybrid deployment strategies: running classical and PQC in parallel without service disruption
6 Regulatory and Standards Landscape ETSI, NIST, and sector-specific requirements
  • ETSI TS 103 744 (quantum-safe cryptography) and its relevance to media delivery
  • NIST SP 800-227 (PQC migration guidelines) and timeline expectations
  • Ofcom and EU AVMSD security requirements for streaming platform operators
7 Q&A and Migration Planning
