Obsoleted by: RFC3369, RFC3370
This document describes the Cryptographic Message Syntax. This syntax is used to digitally sign, digest, authenticate, or encrypt arbitrary messages.
The Cryptographic Message Syntax is derived from PKCS #7 version 1.5 as specified in RFC2315 [PKCS#7]. Wherever possible, backward compatibility is preserved; however, changes were necessary to accommodate attribute certificate transfer and key agreement techniques for key management.
