Subject: Fwd: [dss-x] 30-day Public Review for #DSS Extension for Local Signature Computation V1.0
Dear subscribers to the DSS-X comment list, please consider taking the opportunity of participating in the public review of the DSS Extension for Local Signature Computation Version 1.0. The public review started 11 February 2014 at 00:00 GMT and
ends 12 March 2014 at 23:59 GMT.
Your input is greatly appreciated. For further details please cf. the announcement below. Until now announcements like this were not also sent to the TC's comment list, but for now this manual forward should remedy this. All the best, Stefan Drees Co-Chair of OASIS DSS-X TC -------- Original-Nachricht --------
The OASIS Digital Signature Services eXtended (DSS-X) TC
[1] members have recently approved a Committee Specification
Draft (CSD) and submitted this specification for 30-day
public review:
DSS Extension for Local Signature Computation Version 1.0
Committee Specification 01 / Public Review Draft 01
16 January 2014
Specification Overview:
The core OASIS Digital Signature Service webservice
[DSSCore] supports the creation of signatures on behalf of
applications and / or users by utilizing server-based
signature keys.
This Local Signature Computation profile extends the core
functionality such that end users can bring (use) their own
(secure) signature-creation device. Examples of such devices
are smartcards or usb-tokens but also smartphones, mobile
phones, tablets, pc's or laptops with privately held
signature keys.
Three solutions are presented to support the varying
capabilities of applications and different use cases.
The first solution is useful for web-applications where
web browsers can access the (secure) signature-creation
device that is available at the desktop (e.g. a smartcard
connected via USB).
The second solution is useful for applications that can
access the (secure) signature- creation device themselve,
for instance desktop applications or smartphone apps.
The third solution is useful for any application where
the (secure) signature-creation device can only be accessed
via a separate channel, for instance a mobile device,
through a third-party.
TC Description:
The DSS-X TC is developing new profiles of the existing
OASIS Digital Signature Services core protocol "Digital
Signature Service Core Protocols, Elements, and Bindings
Version 1.0" and is maintaining this specification and its
existing profiles. If at a later date it becomes clear that
a new version of DSS is necessary then this may be produced
by the TC.
DSS-X is also working on promotion of the standard and
the creation of material helping dissemination. In general
terms, the TC has the goal to facilitate the processing of
digital signatures and time stamps in a client server
environment.
The DSS-X TC is a member of the IDtrust Member Section.
Public Review Period:
The public review starts 11 February 2014 at 00:00 GMT
and ends 12 March 2014 at 23:59 GMT.
This is an open invitation to comment. OASIS solicits
feedback from potential users, developers and others,
whether OASIS members or not, for the sake of improving the
interoperability and quality of its technical work.
