ISO 18014

ISO/IEC 18014 is a ...

PART 1: Information technology. Security techniques. Time-stamping services. Framework.

In this fist part of ISO/IEC 18014, several things are explained and developed:
* The identification of the objectives of a time authority.
* The description of a general model on which time stamping services are based.
* The definition of time stamping services.
* The definition of the basic protocols of time stamping.
* The specifications of the protocols between the involved entities.

Key words: Audit, Non-Repudiation, Security, time-stamp

PART 2: Information technology. Security techniques. Time-stamping services. Mechanisms producing independent tokens.

A time-stamping service provides evidence that a data item existed before a certain point in time. Time-stamp services produce time-stamp tokens, which are data structures containing a verifiable cryptographic binding between a data item's representation and a time-value. This part of ISO/IEC 18014 defines time-stamping mechanisms that produce independent tokens, which can be verified one by one.

PART 3: Information technology. Security techniques. Time-stamping services. Mechanisms producing linked tokens

This part of ISO/IEC 18014:
* Describes a general model for time-stamping services producing linked tokens.
* Describes the basic components used to construct a time-stamping service of this type.
* Defines the data structures used to interact with a time-stamping service of this type.
* Describes specific instances of such time-stamping services.

ISO/IEC 18014-3:2004 describes time-stamping services producing linked tokens, that is, tokens that are cryptographically bound to other tokens produced by these time-stamping services. It describes a general model for time-stamping services of this type and the basic components used to construct a time-stamping service of this type, it defines the data structures and protocols used to interact with a time-stamping service of this type, and it describes specific instances of such time-stamping services.

This norm is also named:

* BS ISO/IEC 18014.1/ 18014.2/18014.3
* INCITS/ISO/IEC 18014.1/18014.2/18014.3
* ISO/IEC 18014.1/18014.2/18014.3
* CSA ISO/IEC 18014.1/18014.2/18014.3"'
