Signed Object Template for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure
RFC 6488, “Signed Object Template for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure”, is a Proposed Standard document published in February 2012 by M. Lepinski, A. Chi, S. Kent. It has since been updated by RFC 9589. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines a generic profile for signed objects used in the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI). These RPKI signed objects make use of Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) as a standard encapsulation format. [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.
