A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 3126 Title: Electronic Signature Formats for long term electronic signatures Author(s): D. Pinkas, J. Ross, N. Pope Status: Informational Date: September 2001 Mailbox: harri.rasilainen@etsi.fr, Denis.Pinkas @bull.net, ross@secstan.com, pope@secstan.com Pages: 84 Characters: 175886 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-smime-esformats-03.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3126.txt This document defines the format of an electronic signature that can remain valid over long periods. This includes evidence as to its validity even if the signer or verifying party later attempts to deny (i.e., repudiates the validity of the signature). The format can be considered as an extension to RFC 2630 and RFC 2634, where, when appropriate additional signed and unsigned attributes have been defined.
