BinaryTime: An Alternate Format for Representing Date and Time in ASN.1
RFC 4049, “BinaryTime: An Alternate Format for Representing Date and Time in ASN.1”, is an Experimental document published in April 2005 by R. Housley. It has been obsoleted by RFC 6019 — refer to the newer document for the authoritative version. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies a new ASN.1 type for representing time: BinaryTime. This document also specifies an alternate to the signing-time attribute for use with the Cryptographic Message Syntax(CMS) SignedData and AuthenticatedData content types; the binary-signing-time attribute uses BinaryTime. CMS and the signing-time attribute are defined in RFC 3852. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
