Question

n contrast to IPsec and TLS, WireGuard is completely inflexible in its choice of algorithms: it only supports one cipher, one hash function, one named curve for ECDH, etc. What advantages does that property give WireGuard, over protocols like IPsec and TLS?

Step 1

Users do not need to make decisions about which algorithms to use, reducing the complexity often associated with setting up IPsec or TLS, which can involve selecting from a wide range of options. Show more…
