PKI White Papers

Directory Signed Operations

Overview Directory Signed Operations are often requested or mandated as a part of Military ACP 133 Directory or other directory services with high security requirements. This paper explains what directory signed operations are, the benefits they provide, and situations where it makes sense to require their use. Directory Signed Operations are a part of the X.500 Directory Standard that applies digital signatures to individual directory operations, based on X.509 PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). Directory signed operations provide additional security by applying an X.509 digital signature to individual directory operations and to the results returned.
