The XML Key Management Specification (XKMS) is a document that is defining the protocols used for distributing and registering public keys that can be used with the XML Signature standards developed by the World Wide Web Consortium and the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), being an anticipated standard that would be used together with the XML encryption standard. Basically, the XKMS standard is formed by two parts: XML Key Information Service Specification (X-KISS) and the XML Key Registration Service Specification 

Abstract: This document lists the design principles, scope, and requirements for the XML Digital Signature specification. It includes requirements as they relate to the signature syntax, data model, format, cryptographic processing, and external requirements and coordination. Status of this document: This Working Draft of XML Signature Requirements is a very stable result of this Working Draft having been advanced through W3C Last Call. Relatively small changes have been made to clarify the stated requirements during that period. This document will

The W3C recommendation allows any digital data to be signed, and this includes an XML document, an XML element of a document, and the content of an XML element as particular cases. When we talk about an XML signature, we are actually referring to an XML document, which contains the Signature (defined in the namespace http://www.w3.org/2000/09/XMLdsig#) as one element (which may be the root element). But the document may also contain other elements, among which the most important are, of course, the original data objects being signed. Depending on

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has announced the publication of XML Encryption Syntax and Processing and Decryption Transform for XML Signature as W3C Recommendations, signifying a "cross-industry agreement on an XML-based approach for securing XML data in a document. A W3C Recommendation indicates that a specification is stable, contributes to Web interoperability, and has been reviewed by the W3C Membership, who favor its widespread adoption." The Encryption document "specifies a process for encrypting data and representing the result in XML. The
