This document defines an extension to X.509 certificates. The
extension defined in this document holds data about how the
certificate subject was authenticated by the Certification
Authority that issued the certificate in which this extension
appears.
This document also defines one data structure for inclusion in
this extension. The data structure is designed to hold information
when the subject is authenticated using a Security Assertion Markup
Language (SAML) assertion.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
