New ASN.1 Modules for the Evidence Record Syntax

Overview

RFC 9169, “New ASN.1 Modules for the Evidence Record Syntax”, is an Informational document published in December 2021 by R. Housley, C. Wallace. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

The Evidence Record Syntax (ERS) and the conventions for including these evidence records in the Server-based Certificate Validation Protocol (SCVP) are expressed using ASN.1. This document offers alternative ASN.1 modules that conform to the 2002 version of ASN.1 and employ the conventions adopted in RFCs 5911, 5912, and 6268. There are no bits-on-the-wire changes to any of the formats; this is simply a change to the ASN.1 syntax.
