# KERI Suite of Protocol Specifications Final (LF Decentralized Trust post)

A LinkedIn post by LF Decentralized Trust announcing that the KERI, Authentic Chained Data Containers (ACDC) and Composable Event Streaming Representation (CESR) specifications from the Trust over IP (ToIP) KERI Suite Working Group had completed public review and were moving toward formal standardization. It describes CESR as the encoding layer, KERI as key management and ACDC as credentials, mentions the GLEIF vLEI and a GSMA calling demonstration as uses, and links the three specifications in its comments.
