CBOR Web Token (CWT) is a compact means of representing claims to be
transferred between two parties.  The claims in a CWT are encoded in
the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR), and CBOR Object
Signing and Encryption (COSE) is used for added application-layer
security protection.  A claim is a piece of information asserted
about a subject and is represented as a name/value pair consisting of
a claim name and a claim value.  CWT is derived from JSON Web Token
(JWT) but uses CBOR rather than JSON.

This document is a product of the Authentication and Authorization for Constrained Environments Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.
