Abstract


   In the IETF Remote Attestation Procedures (RATS) architecture, a
   Verifier accepts Evidence and uses Appraisal Policy for Evidence,
   typically with additional input from Endorsements and Reference
   Values, to generate Attestation Results in formats that are useful
   for Relying Parties.  This document illustrates the purpose and role
   of Endorsements and discusses some considerations in the choice of
   message format for Endorsements in the scope of the RATS
   architecture.

   This document does not aim to define a conceptual message format for
   Endorsements and Reference Values.  Instead, it extends RFC9334 to
   provide further details on Reference Values and Endorsements, as
   these topics were outside the scope of the RATS charter when RFC9334
   was developed.
