The document discusses secure messaging for internet applications using ZeroMQ. It proposes solutions like CurveZMQ and ZMTP 3.0 that provide encryption, authentication and extensibility at the protocol level. CurveZMQ defines a security handshake inspired by CurveCP that is transport neutral and compatible with SASL. ZMTP 3.0 introduces security mechanisms to ZMQ like CURVE for full encryption and authentication. The author advocates getting involved in the open RFC process to help evolve these standards.
