Name : Malte Borcherding E-mail : [email protected] MIME media type name : Application MIME subtype name : Vendor Tree - vnd.msign Required parameters : None Optional parameters : charset: Since this content type is an encoding of an XML application, this parameter conforms to the same guidelines as the XML Mediatypes described in RFC 2376. Encoding considerations : Since this content type is an encoding of an XML application, the same encoding considerations apply as in the XML Mediatypes described in RFC 2376. Security considerations : The msign protocol is a signature request protocol, and as such care must be taken in the secure transport of the messages. The protocol messages themselves contain no mechanisms to protect the integrity or confidentiality of the contents, such that a transport via SSL or S/MIME is strongly recommended. No msign message contains "executable" information of any kind. Interoperability considerations : The Mobile Electronic Signature Consortium sets up a compliance testing process to ensure interoperability of complying products. Published specification : The specification is not public at this time. Applications which use this media : This media type is used by applications implementing the msign protocol. The purpose of the msign protocol is to request signatures from a mobile device. Additional information : 1. Magic number(s) : 2. File extension(s) : 3.
