X12 815 Cryptographic Service Message
Data contents of the Cryptographic Service Message Transaction Set (815) for use
within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment.
The
transaction set can be used to provide the data format required for crypto-graphic
key management including the automated distribution and exchange
of keys. The mechanism uses X12 structures and data formats and is based
on existing standards such as X509 and ANSI X3 and X9 developed by the
Accredited Standards Committees (ASCs) X9 and X12. The standard pro-vides
an X12 format for key distribution and exchange. The Cryptographic
Service Message (CSM) transaction conveys the pertinent keying material for
use in the EDI environment. The business requirements addressed in this
standard for the key management data encompasses distribution and
exchange of keying material in support of authentication, encryption and
assurances.
