NATS is an open-source, cloud-native messaging system.
|
|
|
|
This is a command line utility to manage NATS Ed25519 keys.
|
|
|
|
The NATS ecosystem will be moving to Ed25519 keys for identity,
|
|
authentication and authorization for entities such as Accounts,
|
|
Users, Servers and Clusters.
|
|
|
|
Ed25519 is fast and resistant to side channel attacks. Generation
|
|
of a seed key is all that is needed to be stored and kept safe, as
|
|
the seed can generate both the public and private keys.
|
|
|
|
The NATS system will utilize Ed25519 keys, meaning that NATS systems
|
|
will never store or even have access to any private keys. Authentication
|
|
will utilize a random challenge response mechanism.
