Abstract: This document describes a method for extending the scope of the JSON Web Signature (JWS) standard, called JWS/CT. By combining the detached mode of JWS with the JSON Canonicalization Scheme (JCS), JWS/CT enables JSON objects to remain in the JSON format after being signed (aka "Clear Text" signing). In addition to supporting a consistent data format, this arrangement also simplifies documentation, debugging, and logging. The ability to embed signed JSON objects in other JSON objects, makes the use of counter- signatures straightforward. If you want to take it for a spin, there is a JWS/CT playground at: https://mobilepki.org/jws-ct _______________________________________________ jose mailing list jose@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/jose
