Likewise, please refer to the latest version of the CT-KIP Extensions
draft as the input document, i.e., draft-nystrom-ct-kip-two-pass-01, not
-00; -00 is expired and does not exist anymore.  

The latest draft is located at:

Gentlemen,
I would like to propose to use the latest version of the PSKC draft as
the
input document instead of the first version 

The latest draft can be found at:

Collecting the changes proposed to date:
 

Provisioning of Symmetric Keys (KEYPROV)
========================================

Background
----------

Current developments in deployment of Shared Symmetric Key (SSK) tokens
have
highlighted the need for a standard protocol for provisioning symmetric
keys. 

The need for provisioning protocols in PKI architectures has been
recognized
for some time. Although the existence and architecture of these
protocols
provides a feasibility proof for the KEYPROV work assumptions built into
these protocols mean that it is not possible to apply them to symmetric
key
architectures without substantial modification.

In particular the ability to provision symmetric keys and associated
attributes dynamically to already issued devices such as cell phones and
USB
drives is highly desirable. The working group will develop the necessary
protocols and data formats required to support provisioning and
management
of symmetric key authentication tokens, both proprietary and standards
based.


Input Documents
---------------

The following documents have been proposed by their authors as input
documents:

Portable Symmetric Key Container

ntainer-00.txt 

Extensions to CT-KIP to support one- and two-pass key initialization

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-nystrom-ct-kip-two-pass-00.txt



Scope and Deliverables
----------------------

The scope of the working group shall be to define protocols and data
formats
necessary for provisioning of symmetric cryptographic keys and
associated
attributes.

The group shall consider use cases related to use of Shared Symmetric
Key
Tokens. Other use cases may be considered for the purpose of avoiding
unnecessary restrictions in the design and ensure the potential for
future
extensibility.

The working group will produce the following deliverables:

*	Portable Symmetric Key Container 
*	Dynamic Symmetric Key Provisioning Protocol
