A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-smime-ibearch-09.txt Technical Summary This document describes the security architecture required to implement identity-based encryption, a public-key encryption technology that uses a user's identity to generate their public key. Working Group Summary This document is a product of the S/MIME Working Group. There was very little public discussion about this draft. During WG last call comments were raised and addressed, and after last call some nits were addressed. Protocol Quality Tim Polk reviewed this document for the IESG.
