IETF RFC 3767
Securely Available Credentials Protocol
| Organization: | IETF |
| Publication Date: | 1 June 2004 |
| Status: | active |
| Page Count: | 25 |
scope:
This document describes a protocol whereby a user can acquire cryptographic credentials (e.g., private keys, PKCS #15 structures) from a credential server, using a workstation that has locally trusted software installed, but with no user-specific configuration. The protocol's payloads are described in XML. This memo also specifies a Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol (BEEP) profile of the protocol. Security requirements are met by mandating support for TLS and/or DIGEST-MD5 (through BEEP).
