MIME Object Security Services

MIME Object Security Services

MIME Object Security Services (MOSS) is a protocol that uses the multipart/signed and multipart/encrypted framework to apply digital signature and encryption services to MIME objects. The services are offered through the use of end-to-end cryptography between an originator and a recipient at the application layer.

MOSS was never widely deployed and is now abandoned, largely due to the popularity of PGP.
