Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document defines new COSE header parameters for signaling a
   payload as an output of a hash function.  This mechanism enables
   faster validation as access to the original payload is not required
   for signature validation.  Additionally, hints of the detached
   payload's content format and availability are defined providing
   references to optional discovery mechanisms that can help to find
   original payload content.
