Standard ECMA-219
Authentication and Privilege Attribute
Security Application with related Key Distribution Functions -
Part 1, 2 and 3
2nd edition (March 1996)
This Standard ECMA-219 defines three applications:
- an Authentication Application,
-
a Privilege Attributes Application,
-
a Key Distribution Application.
These are distributed Security Applications that provide services concerned with authentication and access control, along with related key distribution information. This definition includes:
-
data elements for authentication and access control purposes,
-
services for the authentication of human users of computer based systems
as well as other active entities,
-
services for the provision of Privilege Attributes for purposes of access
control in distributed open systems,
-
the means of protecting authentication information and Privilege Attributes
in interchange between open systems,
-
key distribution information for establishing the keys used in this protection,
The last two of these facilities requires that the above applications support a Key Distribution Service, which can either be provided integrally, or as a separate application.
