Abstract:
Constrained Devices as they are used in the "Internet of Things" need
security. One important element of this security is that devices in
the Internet of Things need to be able to decide which operations
requested of them should be considered authorized, need to ascertain
that the authorization to request the operation does apply to the
actual requester, and need to ascertain that other devices they place
requests on are the ones they intended.
On the ACE mailing list, an activity to create specifications for
such authenticated authorization for constrained devices is
contemplated.
One potential work item is an Authorization Information Format (AIF).
This document provides a strawman for such a format that is intended
to enable further discussion of the objectives for its development.
