We are excited to share our latest work on making secure messaging more decentralized!

We've developed DMLS – a new approach that brings fork resilience to the MLS protocol, solving a key challenge in distributed systems while maintaining Forward Secrecy.

This work was made possible by eQualitie, who funded it as part of the SplinterCon Breakout program.

Making MLS more decentralized

It’s no secret that we at Phoenix R&D are big fans of the Messaging Layer Security (MLS) protocol, having helped it to come into existence. It’s a versatile group key agreement and messaging protocol that’s used to power both asynchronous and real-time applications. MLS is relatively

Our solution builds on research by Alwen et al., using Puncturable Pseudorandom Functions (PPRFs) to allow multiple group states to coexist securely.

This means:
- No need for a central ordering service
- Maintain Forward Secrecy even with forks
- Better support for decentralized messaging
