Here are a few security related updates from the NTP working group... 

The NTP working group meeting at IETF 108 is tomorrow (Friday, 31 July @ 1100 UTC). 

The most relevant security related update is that the 
Network Time Security for the Network Time Protocol (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ntp-using-nts-for-ntp/) was approved by the IESG in March and is in the RFC Editor queue. 

Additionally, an experimental extension to NTP is on the agenda A Secure Selection and Filtering Mechanism for the Network Time Protocol Version 4 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ntp-chronos/)

Finally, some in the security community may also be interested in Roughtime ( https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ntp-roughtime/)
