A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : User Defined Key Pair Author(s) : Omar Omran Filename : draft-omar-tls-udkp-01.txt Pages : 13 Date : 2013-06-18 Abstract: In this document, I provide a high-level design for a new protocol in the application layer of the TCP/IP suite that will build a secure tunnel between the user's browser and the server without the involvement of any third party. My proposed protocol is called User- Defined Key Pair (UDKP), and its objective is to build a secure tunnel between the user's browser and the server using a public/private key pair generated for the user on the fly inside the user's browser based on the user credential information. This key pair will be used by the protocol instead of the server certificate as the starting point for creating the secure tunnel.
