This challenge response is based on a wrapper we call NKeys which uses [Ed25519](https://ed25519.cr.yp.to/) signing. The server can use these keys in several ways for authentication. The simplest is for the server to be configured with a list of known public keys and for the clients to respond to the challenge by signing it with its private key. This challenge-response insures security by insuring that the client has the private key, but also protects the private key from the server which never has to actually see it. +The 2.0 version of NATS server introduces a new challenge response authentication option.
