A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5708 Title: X.509 Key and Signature Encoding for the KeyNote Trust Management System Author: A. Keromytis Status: Informational Date: January 2010 Mailbox: angelos@cs.columbia.edu Pages: 6 Characters: 12529 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-keromytis-keynote-x509-02.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5708.txt This memo describes X.509 key identifiers and signature encoding for version 2 of the KeyNote trust-management system (RFC 2704). X.509 certificates (RFC 5280) can be directly used in the Authorizer or Licensees field (or in both fields) in a KeyNote assertion, allowing for easy integration with protocols that already use X.509 certificates for authentication. In addition, the document defines additional signature types that use other hash functions (beyond the MD5 and SHA1 hash functions that are defined in RFC 2792). This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes. INFORMATIONAL: This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.
