Draft pkix - Certificate Management Messages over CMS
26.10.2005
Abstract:
This document defines the base syntax for CMC, a Certificate
Management protocol using CMS (Cryptographic Message Syntax). This
protocol addresses two immediate needs within the Internet PKI
community:
1. The need for an interface to public key certification products
and services based on CMS and PKCS #10 (Public Key Crytpography Standard), and
2. The need in S/MIME (Secure MIME) for a certificate enrollment
protocol for DSA-signed certificates with Diffie-Hellman public
keys.
CMC also requires the use of the transport document and the
requirements usage document along with this document for a full
definition.
