Abstract

This document defines a Best Current Practice for deploying the Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP) in a secure manner. It introduces a mechanism for symmetric encryption using TLS, with client authentication based on user credentials. The aim is to provide confidentiality and integrity of ICAP traffic in modern zero- trust and content-sensitive environments.
