A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Use Cases and Requirements for JSON Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) Author(s) : Richard Barnes Filename : draft-barnes-jose-use-cases-00.txt Pages : 13 Date : 2012-04-09 Many Internet applications have a need for object-based security mechanisms in addition to security mechanisms at the network layer or transport layer. In the past, the Cryptographic Message Syntax has provided a binary secure object format based on ASN.1. Over time, the use of binary object encodings such as ASN.1 has been overtaken by text-based encodings, for example JavaScript Object Notation. This document defines a set of use cases and requirements for a secure object format encoded using JavaScript Object Notation, drawn from a variety of application security mechanisms currently in development.
