Title : Problem Statement: Deployment of TLS Strong
Authentication
Author(s) : Karl Malbrain
Filename : draft-malbrain-tls-strong-authentication-00.txt
Pages : 6
Date : 2013-09-17
Abstract:
The security provided by authenticated TLS connection between
clients and servers should protect both parties from "Man-in-
the-Middle" (MITM) attacks. Clients should be authenticating
that the server they are connected to is the server they
requested, and servers that act as client agents need to
authenticate that the connection is directly to their client.
An extension to the Domain Name System (DNS), The DNS-Based
Authentication of Named Entities (DANE) (RFC 6698), allows TLS
servers to publish their public certificates for use by TLS
clients to authenticate the server connection.
