Abstract:
   Many Internet applications have a need for object-based security
   mechanisms in addition to security mechanisms at the network layer or
   transport layer.  For many years, the Cryptographic Message Syntax
   (CMS) has provided a binary secure object format based on ASN.1.
   Over time, binary object encodings such as ASN.1 have become less
   common than text-based encodings, for example JavaScript Object
   Notation.  This document defines a set of use cases and requirements
   for a secure object format encoded using JavaScript Object Notation
   (JSON), drawn from a variety of application security mechanisms
   currently in development.
