The IESG has received a request from the Secure Telephone Identity Revisited WG (stir) to consider the following document: - 'Secure Telephone Identity Credentials: Certificates' <draft-ietf-stir-certificates-10.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-11-01. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract In order to prevent the impersonation of telephone numbers on the Internet, some kind of credential system needs to exist that cryptographically asserts authority over telephone numbers. This document describes the use of certificates in establishing authority over telephone numbers, as a component of a broader architecture for managing telephone numbers as identities in protocols like SIP. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-stir-certificates/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-stir-certificates/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. The document contains this normative downward references.
