Provisioned Entity Authentication

Wesley Miaw edited this page Apr 19, 2016 · 4 revisions

The provisioned entity authentication scheme does not provide encryption or authentication. It also does not identify the entity. When coupled with the appropriate key exchange mechanism the entity can request its identity from a remote entity. This scheme can prevent identities from being harvested or spoofed, but does not allow an entity to have control over its identity or necessarily retain its identity across state resets or in the event of MSL errors requiring entity re-authentication.

This scheme is identified by the string PROVISIONED.
