Evidence Record Syntax
RFC 4998, “Evidence Record Syntax”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2007 by T. Gondrom, R. Brandner, U. Pordesch. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
In many scenarios, users must be able prove the existence and integrity of data, including digitally signed data, in a common and reproducible way over a long and possibly undetermined period of time. This document specifies the syntax and processing of an Evidence Record, a structure designed to support long-term non-repudiation of existence of data. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
