Title: Generic Security Service Application Program Interface
Author(s): J. Linn.
Status: PROPOSED STANDARD
Date: Sep 1993
Length: 111228
Obsoleted by: RFC2078
This Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API) definition provides security services to callers in a generic fashion, supportable with a range of underlying mechanisms and technologies and hence allowing source-level portability of applications to different environments. This specification defines GSS-API services and primitives at a level independent of underlying mechanism and programming language environment, and is to be complemented by other, related specifications:
documents defining specific parameter bindings for particular
language environments
documents defining token formats, protocols, and procedures to
be implemented in order to realize GSS-API services atop
particular security mechanisms
