Group Details
ffdhe81922600x0104What is ffdhe8192?
FFDHE8192 is the largest standardized finite field DH group, using 8192-bit parameters and providing approximately 192-bit security. This massive key size is intended for scenarios requiring maximum security against future quantum computers and cryptanalysis. FFDHE8192 is defined in RFC 7919 but has virtually no real-world usage due to extreme performance penalties (200-500x slower than X25519). Handshakes can take seconds instead of milliseconds. FFDHE8192 is rarely implemented outside of academic and research contexts. Its existence provides a theoretical maximum-security option if all other algorithms are broken.
Role in JA3 Fingerprinting
The ffdhe8192 group is used for ECDHE key exchange in TLS, providing perfect forward secrecy. Different browsers and HTTP clients advertise different supported groups, making this a key component of JA3 fingerprints.
Fingerprinting Impact: The order and selection of supported groups reveals browser type, version, and security preferences.
