Title : Use Cases and Requirements for JSON Object Signing
and Encryption (JOSE)
Author(s) : Richard Barnes

Abstract:
Many Internet applications have a need for object-based security
mechanisms in addition to security mechanisms at the network layer or
transport layer. In the past, the Cryptographic Message Syntax has
provided a binary secure object format based on ASN.1. Over time,
the use of binary object encodings such as ASN.1 has been overtaken
by text-based encodings, for example JavaScript Object Notation.
This document defines a set of use cases and requirements for a
secure object format encoded using JavaScript Object Notation, drawn
from a variety of application security mechanisms currently in
development.
