This is a call to the primary or alternate representatives of OASIS Organizational Members to vote.

-- Information about the Candidate OASIS Standard and the KMIP TC -- 

The Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) is a single, comprehensive protocol for communication between clients that request any of a wide range of encryption keys and servers that store and manage those keys. By replacing redundant, incompatible key management protocols, KMIP provides better data security while at the same time reducing expenditures on multiple products.

KMIP v1.3 enhances the KMIP v1.2 standard by:

- defining new functionality in the protocol to improve interoperability;
- defining additional Test Cases for verifying and validating the new functionality;
- providing additional information in the KMIP Usage Guide to assist in effective implementation of KMIP in key management clients and servers; and - defining new profiles for establishing KMIP-compliant implementations.

The KMIP Specification describes the protocol used for the communication between clients and servers to perform management operations on objects stored and maintained by a key management system. This includes symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic keys, digital certificates, and templates used to simplify the creation of objects and control their use.

The KMIP Profiles provide a selected set of base level conformance profiles and authentication suites; additional KMIP Profiles define specific sets of KMIP functionality for conformance purposes.

3 Statements of Use for each were received from P6R Inc., Cryptsoft Pty Ltd, and Fornetix [2].
