RFC3157 - Securely Available Credentials - Requirements

This document describes requirements to be placed on Securely Available Credentials (SACRED) protocols. This memo provides information for the Internet community.

RFC3760 - Securely Available Credentials (SACRED) - Credential Server Framework

As the number, and more particularly the number of different types, of devices connecting to the Internet increases, credential mobility becomes an issue for IETF standardization. This document responds to the requirements on protocols for secure exchange of credentials listed in RFC 3157, by presenting an abstract protocol framework. This memo provides information for the Internet community.

RFC3767 - Securely Available Credentials Protocol

This document describes a protocol whereby a user can acquire cryptographic credentials (e.g., private keys, PKCS #15 structures) from a credential server, using a workstation that has locally trusted software installed, but with no user-specific configuration. The protocol's payloads are described in XML. This memo also specifies a Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol (BEEP) profile of the protocol. Security requirements are met by mandating support for TLS and/or DIGEST-MD5 (through BEEP). [STANDARDS-TRACK]
