+### 12.8 Protocol Versions and Signature Security
+
+#### 12.8.1 Protocol Version Overview
+
+The Token SDK supports multiple protocol versions for token request signatures, providing a migration path for security improvements while maintaining backward compatibility.
+
+**Supported Protocol Versions**:
+- **Protocol V1**: Original implementation (legacy)
+- **Protocol V2**: Enhanced security implementation (recommended)
+
+#### 12.8.2 Protocol V1 (Legacy)
+
+**Implementation**: [`token/driver/request.go:marshalToMessageToSignV1`](../../token/driver/request.go)
+
+**Signature Message Construction**:
+```
+SignatureMessage = ASN.1(TokenRequest) || Anchor
+```
+
+**Characteristics**:
+- Simple concatenation of ASN.1-encoded request and anchor
+- No delimiter or length prefix between components
+- Maintained for backward compatibility with existing deployments
+
+**Security Limitations**:
+- **Boundary Ambiguity**: Lack of delimiter creates potential for hash collision attacks
+- **No Input Validation**: Anchor parameter not validated for size or content
+- **Binary Data in Logs**: Error messages may expose sensitive data
+
+**Status**: ⚠️ **DEPRECATED** - Use Protocol V2 for new deployments
+
+#### 12.8.3 Protocol V2 (Recommended)
+
+**Implementation**: [`token/driver/request.go:marshalToMessageToSignV2`](../../token/driver/request.go)
+
+**Signature Message Construction**:
+```go
+type SignatureMessage struct {
+    Request []byte  // ASN.1-encoded TokenRequest
+    Anchor  []byte  // Transaction anchor/ID
+}
+SignatureMessage = ASN.1(SignatureMessage)
+```
+
+**Security Improvements**:
+
+1. **Structured Format**: Uses ASN.1 structure with explicit field boundaries
+   - Prevents boundary ambiguity attacks
+   - Ensures unique mapping from (Request, Anchor) to signature message
+   - Maintains ASN.1 consistency throughout the protocol
+
+2. **Input Validation with Typed Errors**:
+   - Anchor must be non-empty (`ErrAnchorEmpty`)
+   - Anchor size limited to `MaxAnchorSize` (128 bytes) to prevent DoS (`ErrAnchorTooLarge`)
+   - Unsupported versions rejected with `ErrUnsupportedVersion`
+   - Validation occurs before signature generation
+
+3. **Secure Error Handling**:
+   - Binary data hex-encoded in error messages
+   - Prevents sensitive data exposure in logs
+   - Compatible with log aggregation systems
+
+4. **Comprehensive Documentation**:
+   - Security properties clearly documented
+   - Migration guidance provided
+   - Attack scenarios explained
+
+**Security Properties**:
+- **Collision Resistance**: Different (Request, Anchor) pairs always produce different signature messages
+- **Deterministic**: Same input always produces same output
+- **Tamper-Evident**: Any modification to Request or Anchor changes the signature message
+- **DoS Protection**: Input validation prevents resource exhaustion attacks
+
+#### 12.8.4 Migration Guide
+
+**For New Deployments**:
+- Use Protocol V2 by default
+- Configure validators to require minimum version 2
+- Benefit from enhanced security properties
+
+**For Existing Deployments**:
+
+1. **Phase 1: Deploy V2 Support**
+   ```go
+   // Deploy code supporting both V1 and V2
+   // V1 requests continue to work
+   // V2 requests are accepted
+   ```
+
+2. **Phase 2: Monitor Usage**
+   ```go
+   // V1 usage triggers deprecation warnings
+   // Monitor logs for V1 activity
+   // Plan migration timeline
+   ```
+
+3. **Phase 3: Migrate Applications**
+   ```go
+   // Update applications to use V2
+   // Test thoroughly in staging
+   // Roll out gradually
+   ```
+
+4. **Phase 4: Enforce V2**
+   ```go
+   // Configure validators with minimum version 2
+   // V1 requests rejected
+   // V1 support maintained for historical validation
+   ```
+
+**Backward Compatibility**:
+- V1 requests continue to validate correctly
+- Historical transactions remain valid
+- Regression tests ensure V1 compatibility
+- No breaking changes to existing deployments
+
+#### 12.8.5 Version Detection
+
+The protocol version is determined by the `TokenRequest` structure:
+
+```go
+func (r *TokenRequest) getVersion() int {
+    // Currently defaults to V1 for backward compatibility
+    // Future: May be determined by request structure or explicit field
+    return ProtocolV1
+}
+```
+
+**Future Enhancements**:
+- Explicit version field in `TokenRequest`
+- Automatic version negotiation
+- Per-network version policies
+
+#### 12.8.6 Security Recommendations
+
+**For Network Operators**:
+1. Deploy V2 support as soon as possible
+2. Monitor V1 usage via deprecation warnings
+3. Plan migration timeline based on network activity
+4. Set minimum version to V2 after migration complete
+5. Keep V1 support for historical transaction validation
+
+**For Application Developers**:
+1. Use V2 for all new token requests
+2. Test V2 implementation thoroughly
+3. Handle version-specific errors appropriately
+4. Document version requirements clearly
+
+**For Auditors**:
+1. Verify protocol version in audit logs
+2. Flag V1 usage in compliance reports
+3. Ensure V2 adoption in security assessments
+4. Validate signature message construction
