> A trust anchor represents an authoritative entity via a public key and
> associated data.  The public key is used to verify digital signatures
> and the associated data is used to constrain the types of information
> for which the trust anchor is authoritative.  A relying party uses
> trust anchors to determine if a digitally signed object is valid by
> verifying a digital signature using the trust anchor's public key, and
> by enforcing the constraints expressed in the associated data for the
> trust anchor.  This document describes some of the problems associated
> with the lack of a standard trust anchor management mechanism and
> defines requirements for data formats and push-based protocols
designed
> to address these problems.
