Package org.bouncycastle.crypto.agreement.owl Description

Support classes for the Owl augmented PAKE (Hao, Bag, Chen, Lopez 2024).

Owl is an academic protocol — not (yet) an IETF standard. It extends J-PAKE with explicit user-registration and key-confirmation phases. Users wanting a standardised PAKE should prefer the existing J-PAKE in org.bouncycastle.crypto.agreement.jpake / org.bouncycastle.crypto.agreement.ecjpake.
