Format-preserving encryption keeps ciphertext compatible with narrow legacy fields. It also keeps domain size, length, structure and often equality visible.
Preserving the format preserves the leakage.

EDHOC compresses authenticated key exchange into three concise CBOR messages. Its efficiency still depends on exact transcript bytes, credential profiles and state transitions.
A hybrid key exchange combines a traditional contribution with a post-quantum one. Its guarantee depends on the combiner, transcript, negotiation and every failure path around both components.
