Summary:In Proceedings of Public Key Infrastructure: First European PKI Workshop: Research and Applications, EuroPKI 2004, volume 3093 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science, pages 126-134, June 2004 We present a framework for extending the functionality of LDAP servers from their typical use as a public directory in public key infrastructures. In this framework the LDAP servers are used for administrating infrastructure processes. One application of this framework is a method for providing proof-of-possession, especially in the case of encryption keys. Another one is the secure delivery of software personal security environments.
