What are real world implementations of the Noise Protocol? https://github.com/noiseprotocol/noise_spec/blob/v34/noise.md https://github.com/noiseprotocol/noise_spec/blob/v34/noise.m... Quick search shows WireGuard protocol, but I am not sure if how much of the WireGuard protocol is the same as the Noise Protocol. https://www.wireguard.com/formal-verification/ https://www.wireguard.com/formal-verification/ https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard-formal-verification.pdf https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard-formal-verificati... The WireGuard protocol is extensively detailed in [2], which itself is based on the NoiseIK [3] handshake.

I found a page by Duo Labs listing Noise in Production. https://duo.com/labs/tech-notes/noise-protocol-framework-intro https://duo.com/labs/tech-notes/noise-protocol-framework-int... Noise is used today in several high-profile projects: WhatsApp uses the "Noise Pipes" construction from the specification to perform encryption of client-server communications WireGuard, a modern VPN, uses the Noise IK pattern to establish encrypted channels between clients Slack's Nebula project, an overlay networking tool, uses Noise The Lightning Network uses Noise I2P uses Noise

There's a bunch of them, but part of the point of Noise is to be extremely prescriptive in order to simplify implementation. WireGuard is based on Noise, but has a lot more than just Noise in it.
