Patent

CA 2363721

In client/server computing, especially in the field of e-commerce, digitally signed credentials are passed between client and server to develop trust between the parties. However, this requires that one party discloses its credentials (which could be considered sensitive) to the other party before the disclosing party knows anything about the receiving party (someone has to go first). To solve this problem, the invention implements a negotiation of credential disclosure called automatic incremental credential disclosure. Each credential held at a local site is associated with an access policy which is based on opposing site credentials. Incoming requests for credentials are logically combined with the access policies to derive further negotiation responses.

Dans le traitement client/serveur, notamment dans le domaine du commerce électronique, des références signées numériquement circulent entre un client et un serveur pour développer la confiance entre les parties. Toutefois, ceci implique qu'une partie divulgue ses références (ce que l'on pourrait considérer comme délicat) à l'autre partie, avant que la partie divulgatrice n'aie des informations concernant la partie destinatrice (quelqu'un doit commencer). Pour résoudre ce problème, l'invention permet de mettre en place une négociation de divulgation de références appelée divulgation de références par incrémentation automatique. Chaque référence disponible sur un site est associée à une police d'accès fondée sur les références du site opposé. Des requêtes entrantes de références sont logiquement combinées avec les polices d'accès pour fournir d'autres réponses de négociation.
