Precedence: list

Please note there is a new version of this document posted.  Trevor and I did not get finished doing all of the updates that I thought were necessary before he went on vacation, but we did get much farther towards a document I would consider acceptable.

Please review the document with strong focus on the use cases, the model and the requirements.

Please feel free to send comments to me and Trevor, but please remove the abfab and smime mailing lists and just leave the plasma list in your mail.  I am sending this mail to a wider set of people to try and get more reviews.

Thanks

Jim

A new version of I-D, draft-freeman-message-access-control-req-02.txt has been successfully submitted by Jim Schaad and posted to the IETF repository.

Filename:	 draft-freeman-message-access-control-req
Revision:	 02
Title:		 Requirements for Message Access Control
Creation date:	 2011-08-03
WG ID:		 Individual Submission
Number of pages: 33

Abstract:
   There are many situations where organizations want to protect
   information with robust access control, either for implementation of
   intellectual property right protections, enforcement of information
   contractual confidentiality agreements or because of externally
   imposed legal regulations.  The Enhanced Security Services (ESS) for
   S/MIME defines an access control mechanism which is enforced by the
   recipient&#39;s client after decryption of the message. The ESS mechanism
   therefore is dependent on the correct access policy configuration of
   every recipient&#39;s client. This mechanism also provides full access to
   the data to all recipients prior to the access control check which is
   considered to be inadequate for due to the difficulty in
   demonstrating policy compliance.

   This document lays out the deficiencies of the current ESS security
   label, and presents requirements for new model for doing access
   control to messages where the access check is performed prior to
   message content decryption. This new model also does not require
   policy configuration on the client to simplify deployment and
   compliance verification.

   The proposed model additionally provides a method where non-X.509
   certificate credentials can be used for encryption/decryption of
   S/MIME messages.
