Information-theoretic security for the masses

It has come to my mind that you can combine SMP (socialist millionaires protocol) and Kish-Sethuraman protocol to get a protocol which is both IT-secure and can be bootstrapped without all the key management burden.

So, I tried to outline the way how exactly they should be combined and what properties will the resulting construction have.

You can read the draft of the article here:

EDIT: Article updated with the shared secret reuse limitations.

Since this is both my first TeX article and first contribution to the cryptography field, any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
