 DRIP Entity Tag (DET) for Unmanned Aircraft System Remote ID (UAS RID)
                         draft-ietf-drip-rid-22

Abstract

   This document describes the use of Hierarchical Host Identity Tags
   (HHITs) as self-asserting IPv6 addresses and thereby a trustable
   identifier for use as the Unmanned Aircraft System Remote
   Identification and tracking (UAS RID).

   This document updates RFC7401 and RFC7343.

   Within the context of RID, HHITs will be called DRIP Entity Tags
   (DETs).  HHITs self-attest to the included explicit hierarchy that
   provides registry (via, e.g., DNS, EPP) discovery for 3rd-party
   identifier attestation.

1.  Introduction

   DRIP Requirements [RFC9153] describe an Unmanned Aircraft System
   Remote ID (UAS ID) as unique (ID-4), non-spoofable (ID-5), and
   identify a registry where the ID is listed (ID-2); all within a
   20-character identifier (ID-1).

   This document describes the use of Hierarchical Host Identity Tags
   (HHITs) (Section 3) as self-asserting IPv6 addresses and thereby a
   trustable identifier for use as the UAS Remote ID.  HHITs include
   explicit hierarchy to enable DNS HHIT queries (Host ID for
   authentication, e.g., [drip-authentication]) and for Extensible
   Provisioning Protocol (EPP) Registrar discovery [RFC9224] for 3rd-
   party identification attestation (e.g., [drip-authentication]).

   This addition of hierarchy to HITs is an extension to [RFC7401] and
   requires an update to [RFC7343].  As this document also adds EdDSA
   (Section 3.4) for Host Identities (HIs), a number of Host Identity
   Protocol (HIP) parameters in [RFC7401] are updated, these should not
   be needed in a DRIP implementation that does not use HIP.

   HHITs as used within the context of Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS)
   are labeled as DRIP Entity Tags (DETs).  Throughout this document
   HHIT and DET will be used appropriately.  HHIT will be used when
   covering the technology, and DET for their context within UAS RID.

   Hierarchical HITs provide self-attestation of the HHIT registry.  A
   HHIT can only be in a single registry within a registry system (e.g.,
   EPP and DNS).

   Hierarchical HITs are valid, though non-routable, IPv6 addresses
   [RFC8200].  As such, they fit in many ways within various IETF
   technologies.

1.1.  HHIT Statistical Uniqueness different from UUID or X.509 Subject

   HHITs are statistically unique through the cryptographic hash feature
   of second-preimage resistance.  The cryptographically-bound addition
   of the hierarchy and a HHIT registration process [drip-registries]
   provide complete, global HHIT uniqueness.  This contrasts with using
   general identifiers (e.g., a Universally Unique IDentifiers (UUID)
   [RFC4122] or device serial numbers) as the subject in an X.509
   [RFC5280] certificate.

   In a multi-Certificate Authority (multi-CA) PKI alternative to HHITs,
   a Remote ID as the Subject (Section 4.1.2.6 of [RFC5280]) can occur
   in multiple CAs, possibly fraudulently.  CAs within the PKI would
   need to implement an approach to enforce assurance of the uniqueness
   achieved with HHITs.

3.  The Hierarchical Host Identity Tag (HHIT)

   The Hierarchical HIT (HHIT) is a small but important enhancement over
   the flat Host Identity Tag (HIT) space, constructed as an Overlay
   Routable Cryptographic Hash IDentifier (ORCHID) [RFC7343].  By adding
   two levels of hierarchical administration control, the HHIT provides
   for device registration/ownership, thereby enhancing the trust
   framework for HITs.

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022                [Page 5]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   HHITs represent the HI in only a 64-bit hash, expand the Suite ID to
   8 bits, and use the other 28 bits to create a hierarchical
   administration organization for HIT domains.  Hierarchical HIT
   construction is defined in Section 3.5.  The input values for the
   Encoding rules are described in Section 3.5.1.

   A HHIT is built from the following fields (Figure 1):

   *  p = an IPV6 prefix (max 28 bit)

   *  28-bit Hierarchy ID (HID) which provides the structure to organize
      HITs into administrative domains.  HIDs are further divided into
      two fields:

      -  14-bit Registered Assigning Authority (RAA) (Section 3.3.1)

      -  14-bit Hierarchical HIT Domain Authority (HDA) (Section 3.3.2)

   *  8-bit HHIT Suite ID (HHSI)

   *  ORCHID hash (96 - prefix length - 8 for HHIT Suite ID, e.g., 64)
      See Section 3.5 for more details.

                  14 bits| 14 bits              8 bits

                  \              |    ____/   ___________/
                   \             \  _/    ___/
                    \             \/     /

      +--------------+------------+-----+------------------------+

                           Figure 1: HHIT Format

   The Context ID (generated with openssl rand) for the ORCHID hash is:

       Context ID :=  0x00B5 A69C 795D F5D5 F008 7F56 843F 2C40

   Context IDs are allocated out of the namespace introduced for
   Cryptographically Generated Addresses (CGA) Type Tags [RFC3972].

Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

3.1.  HHIT Prefix for RID Purposes

   The IPv6 HHIT prefix MUST be distinct from that used in the flat-
   space HIT as allocated in [RFC7343].  Without this distinct prefix,
   the first 4 bits of the RAA would be interpreted as the HIT Suite ID
   per HIPv2 [RFC7401].

   Initially, for DET use, one 28-bit prefix should be assigned out of
   the IANA IPv6 Special Purpose Address Block ([RFC6890]).

        HHIT Use     Bits  Value
        DET          28    TBD6 (suggested value 2001:30::/28)

   Other prefixes may be added in the future either for DET use or other
   applications of HHITs.  For a prefix to be added to the registry in
   Section 8.2, its usage and HID allocation process have to be publicly
   available.

3.2.  HHIT Suite IDs

   The HHIT Suite IDs specify the HI and hash algorithms.  These are a
   superset of the HIT Suite ID as defined in Section 5.2.10 of
   [RFC7401].

   The HHIT values of 1 - 15 map to the 4-bit HIT Suite IDs.  HHIT
   values of 17 - 31 map to the 8-bit HIT Suite IDs.  HHIT values unique
   to HHIT will start with value 32.

   As HHIT introduces a new Suite ID, EdDSA/cSHAKE128, and since this is
   of value to HIPv2, it will be allocated out of the 4-bit HIT space
   and result in an update to HIT Suite IDs.  Future HHIT Suite IDs may
   be allocated similarly, or may come out of the additional space made
   available by going to 8 bits.

   The following HHIT Suite IDs are defined:

        HHIT Suite          Value
        RESERVED            0
        RSA,DSA/SHA-256     1    [RFC7401]
        ECDSA/SHA-384       2    [RFC7401]
        ECDSA_LOW/SHA-1     3    [RFC7401]
        EdDSA/cSHAKE128     TBD3 (suggested value 5)   (RECOMMENDED)
        RESERVED            16

3.2.1.  HDA custom HIT Suite IDs

   Support for 8-bit HHIT Suite IDs allows for HDA custom HIT Suite IDs.
   These will be assigned values greater than 15 as follows:

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022                [Page 7]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

        HHIT Suite             Value
        HDA Private Use 1      TBD4 (suggested value 254)
        HDA Private Use 2      TBD5 (suggested value 255)

   These custom HIT Suite IDs, for example, may be used for large-scale
   experimenting with post quantum computing hashes or similar domain
   specific needs.  Note that currently there is no support for domain-
   specific HI algorithms.

3.3.  The Hierarchy ID (HID)

   The Hierarchy ID (HID) provides the structure to organize HITs into
   administrative domains.  HIDs are further divided into two fields:

   *  14-bit Registered Assigning Authority (RAA)

   *  14-bit Hierarchical HIT Domain Authority (HDA)

   The rationale for the 14/14 HID split is described in Appendix B.

   The two levels of hierarchy allows for CAAs to have it least one RAA
   for their National Air Space (NAS).  Within its RAA(s), the CAAs can
   delegate HDAs as needed.  There may be other RAAs allowed to operate
   within a given NAS; this is a policy decision of each CAA.

3.3.1.  The Registered Assigning Authority (RAA)

   An RAA is a business or organization that manages a registry of HDAs.
   For example, the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) or Japan Civil
   Aviation Bureau (JCAB) could be an RAA.

   The RAA is a 14-bit field (16,384 RAAs).  The management of this
   space is further elaborated in [drip-registries].  An RAA must
   provide a set of services to allocate HDAs to organizations.  It must
   have a public policy on what is necessary to obtain an HDA.  The RAA
   need not maintain any HIP related services.  It must maintain a DNS
   zone minimally for discovering HIP RVS servers for the HID.  The zone
   delegation is also covered in [drip-registries].

   As DETs under an administrative control may be used in many different
   domains (e.g., commercial, recreation, military), RAAs should be
   allocated in blocks (e.g. 16-19) with consideration on the likely
   size of a particular usage.  Alternatively, different prefixes can be
   used to separate different domains of use of HHITs.

   The RAA DNS zone within the UAS DNS tree may be a PTR for its RAA.
   It may be a zone in an HHIT specific DNS zone.  Assume that the RAA
   is decimal 100.  The PTR record could be constructed as follows:

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022                [Page 8]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   100.hhit.arpa   IN PTR      raa.bar.com.

   Note that if the zone hhit.arpa is ultimately used, some registrar
   will need to manage this for all HHIT applications.  Thus further
   thought will be needed in the actual zone tree and registration
   process [drip-registries].

3.3.2.  The Hierarchical HIT Domain Authority (HDA)

   An HDA may be an Internet Service Provider (ISP), UAS Service
   Supplier (USS), or any third party that takes on the business to
   provide UAS services management, HIP RVSs or other needed services
   such as those required for HHIT and/or HIP-enabled devices.

   The HDA is a 14-bit field (16,384 HDAs per RAA) assigned by an RAA is
   further elaborated in [drip-registries].  An HDA must maintain public
   and private UAS registration information and should maintain a set of
   RVS servers for UAS clients that may use HIP.  How this is done and
   scales to the potentially millions of customers are outside the scope
   of this document, though covered in [drip-registries].  This service
   should be discoverable through the DNS zone maintained by the HDA's
   RAA.

   An RAA may assign a block of values to an individual organization.
   This is completely up to the individual RAA's published policy for
   delegation.  Such policy is out of scope.

3.4.  Edward-Curve Digital Signature Algorithm for HHITs

   The Edwards-Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) [RFC8032] is
   specified here for use as HIs per HIPv2 [RFC7401].

   The intent in this document is to add EdDSA as a HI algorithm for
   DETs, but doing so impacts the HIP parameters used in a HIP exchange.
   As such the following updates HIP parameters.  Other than the HIP DNS
   RR (Resource Record), these should not be needed in a DRIP
   implementation that does not use HIP.

   See Section 3.2 for use of the HIT Suite in the context of DRIP.

3.4.1.  HOST_ID

   The HOST_ID parameter specifies the public key algorithm, and for
   elliptic curves, a name.  The HOST_ID parameter is defined in
   Section 5.2.19 of [RFC7401].

   The addition of EdDSA as a HI algorithm requires a subfield in the
   HIP HOST_ID parameter (Section 5.2.9 of [RFC7401]) as was done for
   ECDSA when used in a HIP exchange.

   For HIP hosts that implement EdDSA as the algorithm, the following

   for the 'Algorithm Type' of the IPSECKEY RR [RFC4025] for its PK
   Algorithm field.

   The new EdDSA HI uses [RFC8080] for the IPSECKEY RR encoding:

   The HIT_SUITE_LIST parameter contains a list of the supported HIT
   suite IDs of the HIP Responder.  Based on the HIT_SUITE_LIST, the HIP
   Initiator can determine which source HIT Suite IDs are supported by
   the Responder.  The HIT_SUITE_LIST parameter is defined in
   Section 5.2.10 of [RFC7401].

   The following HIT Suite ID is defined:

3.5.  ORCHIDs for Hierarchical HITs

   This section improves on ORCHIDv2 [RFC7343] with three enhancements:

   *  Optional "Info" field between the Prefix and OGA ID.

   *  Increased flexibility on the length of each component in the
      ORCHID construction, provided the resulting ORCHID is 128 bits.

   *  Use of cSHAKE, NIST SP 800-185 [NIST.SP.800-185], for the hashing
      function.

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 11]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   The Keccak [Keccak] based cSHAKE XOF hash function is a variable
   output length hash function.  As such it does not use the truncation
   operation that other hashes need.  The invocation of cSHAKE specifies
   the desired number of bits in the hash output.  Further, cSHAKE has a
   parameter 'S' as a customization bit string.  This parameter will be
   used for including the ORCHID Context Identifier in a standard
   fashion.

   This ORCHID construction includes the fields in the ORCHID in the
   hash to protect them against substitution attacks.  It also provides
   for inclusion of additional information, in particular the
   hierarchical bits of the Hierarchical HIT, in the ORCHID generation.
   This should be viewed as an update to ORCHIDv2 [RFC7343], as it can
   produce ORCHIDv2 output.

3.5.1.  Adding Additional Information to the ORCHID

   ORCHIDv2 [RFC7343] is defined as consisting of three components:

   ORCHID     :=  Prefix | OGA ID | Encode_96( Hash )

   where:

   Prefix          : A constant 28-bit-long bitstring value
                     (IPV6 prefix)

   OGA ID          : A 4-bit long identifier for the Hash_function
                     in use within the specific usage context.  When
                     used for HIT generation this is the HIT Suite ID.

   Encode_96( )    : An extraction function in which output is obtained
                     by extracting the middle 96-bit-long bitstring
                     from the argument bitstring.

   The new ORCHID function is as follows:

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 12]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   ORCHID     :=  Prefix (p) | Info (n) | OGA ID (o) | Hash (m)

   where:

   Prefix (p)      : An IPv6 prefix of length p (max 28-bit-long).

   Info (n)        : n bits of information that define a use of the
                     ORCHID.  'n' can be zero, that is no additional
                     information.

   OGA ID (o)      : A 4- or 8-bit long identifier for the Hash_function
                     in use within the specific usage context.  When
                     used for HIT generation this is the HIT Suite ID.
                     When used for HHIT generation this is the
                     HHIT Suite ID.

   Hash (m)        : An extraction function in which output is 'm' bits.

   p + n + o + m = 128 bits

   The ORCHID length MUST be 128 bits.  With a 28-bit IPv6 prefix, the
   remaining 100 bits can be divided in any manner between the
   additional information ("Info"), OGA ID, and the hash output.  Care
   must be considering the size of the hash portion, taking into account
   risks like pre-image attacks. 64 bits, as used in Hierarchical HITs
   may be as small as is acceptable.  The size of 'n' is determined as
   what is left; in the case of the 8-bit OGA used for HHIT, this is 28
   bits.

3.5.2.  ORCHID Encoding

   This update adds a different encoding process to that currently used
   in ORCHIDv2.  The input to the hash function explicitly includes all
   the header content plus the Context ID.  The header content consists
   of the Prefix, the Additional Information ("Info"), and OGA ID (HIT
   Suite ID).  Secondly, the length of the resulting hash is set by sum
   of the length of the ORCHID header fields.  For example, a 28-bit
   prefix with 28 bits for the HID and 8 bits for the OGA ID leaves 64
   bits for the hash length.

   To achieve the variable length output in a consistent manner, the
   cSHAKE hash is used.  For this purpose, cSHAKE128 is appropriate.
   The cSHAKE function call for this update is:

       cSHAKE128(Input, L, "", Context ID)

       Input      :=  Prefix | Additional Information | OGA ID | HOST_ID
       L          :=  Length in bits of hash portion of ORCHID

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 13]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   For full Suite ID support (those that use fixed length hashes like
   SHA256), the following hashing can be used (Note: this does not
   produce output Identical to ORCHIDv2 for a /28 prefix and Additional
   Information of zero-length):

       Hash[L](Context ID | Input)

       Input      :=  Prefix | Additional Information | OGA ID | HOST_ID
       L          :=  Length in bits of hash portion of ORCHID

       Hash[L]    :=  An extraction function in which output is obtained
                      by extracting the middle L-bit-long bitstring
                      from the argument bitstring.

   Hierarchical HITs use the Context ID defined in Section 3.

3.5.2.1.  Encoding ORCHIDs for HIPv2

   This section discusses how to provide backwards compatibility for
   ORCHIDv2 [RFC7343] as used in HIPv2 [RFC7401].

   For HIPv2, the Prefix is 2001:20::/28.  'Info' is zero-length (i.e.,
   not included), and OGA ID is 4-bit.  Thus, the HI Hash is 96-bit
   length.  Further, the Prefix and OGA ID are not included in the hash
   calculation.  Thus, the following ORCHID calculations for fixed
   output length hashes are used:

       Hash[L](Context ID | Input)

       Input      :=  HOST_ID
       L          :=  96
       Context ID :=  0xF0EF F02F BFF4 3D0F E793 0C3C 6E61 74EA

       Hash[L]    :=  An extraction function in which output is obtained
                      by extracting the middle L-bit-long bitstring
                      from the argument bitstring.

   For variable output length hashes use:

       Hash[L](Context ID | Input)

       Input      :=  HOST_ID
       L          :=  96
       Context ID :=  0xF0EF F02F BFF4 3D0F E793 0C3C 6E61 74EA

       Hash[L]    :=  The L-bit output from the hash function

   Then, the ORCHID is constructed as follows:

Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

       Prefix | OGA ID | Hash Output

3.5.3.  ORCHID Decoding

   With this update, the decoding of an ORCHID is determined by the
   Prefix and OGA ID.  ORCHIDv2 [RFC7343] decoding is selected when the
   Prefix is: 2001:20::/28.

   For Hierarchical HITs, the decoding is determined by the presence of
   the HHIT Prefix as specified in Section 8.2.

3.5.4.  Decoding ORCHIDs for HIPv2

   This section is included to provide backwards compatibility for
   ORCHIDv2 [RFC7343] as used for HIPv2 [RFC7401].

   HITs are identified by a Prefix of 2001:20::/28.  The next 4 bits are
   the OGA ID.  The remaining 96 bits are the HI Hash.

4.  Hierarchical HITs as DRIP Entity Tags

   HHITs for UAS ID (called, DETs) use the new EdDSA/SHAKE128 HIT suite
   defined in Section 3.4 (GEN-2 in [RFC9153]).  This hierarchy,
   cryptographically bound within the HHIT, provides the information for
   finding the UA's HHIT registry (ID-3 in [RFC9153]).

   The 2022 forthcoming ASTM Standard Specification for Remote ID and
   Tracking [F3411] adds support for DETs.  This is within the UAS ID
   type 4, "Specific Session ID (SSI)".

   Note that the original Types 1 - 3 allow for an UAS ID with a maximum
   length of 20 bytes, the new SSI (Type 4) uses the first byte of the
   ID for the SSI value, thus restricting the UAS ID to a maximum of 19
   bytes.  The SSI values initially assigned (as per 2022) are:

   ID 1  IETF - DRIP Drone Remote ID Protocol (DRIP) entity ID.

   ID 2  3GPP - IEEE 1609.2-2016 HashedID8

4.1.  Nontransferablity of DETs

   A HI and its HHIT SHOULD NOT be transferable between UA or even
   between replacement electronics (e.g., replacement of damaged
   controller CPU) for a UA.  The private key for the HI SHOULD be held
   in a cryptographically secure component.

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 15]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

4.2.  Encoding HHITs in CTA 2063-A Serial Numbers

   In some cases, it is advantageous to encode HHITs as a CTA 2063-A
   Serial Number [CTA2063A].  For example, the FAA Remote ID Rules
   [FAA_RID] state that a Remote ID Module (i.e., not integrated with UA
   controller) must only use "the serial number of the unmanned
   aircraft"; CTA 2063-A meets this requirement.

   Encoding an HHIT within the CTA 2063-A format is not simple.  The CTA
   2063-A format is defined as follows:

   Serial Number   :=  MFR Code | Length Code | MFR SN

   where:

   MFR Code     : 4 character code assigned by ICAO
                    (International Civil Aviation Organization,
                     a UN Agency).

   Length Code  : 1 character Hex encoding of MFR SN length (1-F).

   MFR SN       : Alphanumeric code (0-9, A-Z except O and I).
                   Maximum length of 15 characters.

   There is no place for the HID; there will need to be a mapping
   service from Manufacturer Code to HID.  The HHIT Suite ID and ORCHID
   hash will take the full 15 characters (as described below) of the MFR
   SN field.

   A character in a CTA 2063-A Serial Number "shall include any
   combination of digits and uppercase letters, except the letters O and
   I, but may include all digits".  This would allow for a Base34
   encoding of the binary HHIT Suite ID and ORCHID hash in 15
   characters.  Although, programmatically, such a conversion is not
   hard, other technologies (e.g., credit card payment systems) that
   have used such odd base encoding have had performance challenges.
   Thus, here a Base32 encoding will be used by also excluding the
   letters Z and S (too similar to the digits 2 and 5).

   The low-order 72 bits (HHIT Suite ID | ORCHID hash) of the HHIT SHALL
   be left-padded with 3 bits of zeros.  This 75-bit number will be
   encoded into the 15-character MFR SN field using the digit/letters
   above.  The manufacturer MUST use a Length Code of F (15).

   Using the sample DET from Section 5 that is for HDA=20 under RAA=10
   and having the ICAO CTA MFR Code of 8653, the 20-character CTA 2063-A
   Serial Number would be:

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 16]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

       8653F02T7B8RA85D19LX

   A mapping service (e.g., DNS) MUST provide a trusted (e.g., via
   DNSSEC [RFC4034]) conversion of the 4-character Manufacturer Code to
   high-order 58 bits (Prefix | HID) of the HHIT.  Definition of this
   mapping service is currently out of scope of this document.

   It should be noted that this encoding would only be used in the Basic
   ID Message (Section 2.2 of [RFC9153]).  The DET is used in the
   Authentication Messages (i.e., the messages that provide framing for
   authentication data only).

4.3.  Remote ID DET as one Class of Hierarchical HITs

   UAS Remote ID DET may be one of a number of uses of HHITs.  However,
   it is out of the scope of the document to elaborate on other uses of
   HHITs.  As such these follow-on uses need to be considered in
   allocating the RAAs (Section 3.3.1) or HHIT prefix assignments
   (Section 8).

4.4.  Hierarchy in ORCHID Generation

   ORCHIDS, as defined in [RFC7343], do not cryptographically bind an
   IPv6 prefix nor the ORCHID Generation Algorithm (OGA) ID (the HIT
   Suite ID) to the hash of the HI.  The rationale at the time of
   developing ORCHID was attacks against these fields are Denial-of-
   Service (DoS) attacks against protocols using ORCHIDs and thus up to
   those protocols to address the issue.

   HHITs, as defined in Section 3.5, cryptographically bind all content
   in the ORCHID through the hashing function.  A recipient of a DET
   that has the underlying HI can directly trust and act on all content
   in the HHIT.  This provides a strong, self-attestation for using the
   hierarchy to find the DET Registry based on the HID (Section 4.5).

4.5.  DRIP Entity Tag (DET) Registry

   DETs are registered to HDAs.  A registration process,
   [drip-registries], ensures DET global uniqueness (ID-4 in [RFC9153]).
   It also provides the mechanism to create UAS public/private data that
   are associated with the DET (REG-1 and REG-2 in [RFC9153]).

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 17]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

4.6.  Remote ID Authentication using DETs

   The EdDSA25519 HI (Section 3.4) underlying the DET can be used in an
   84-byte self-proof attestation (timestamp, HHIT, and signature of
   these) to provide proof of Remote ID ownership (GEN-1 in [RFC9153]).
   In practice, the Wrapper and Manifest authentication formats
   (Sections 6.3.3 and 6.3.4 of [drip-authentication]) implicitly
   provide this self-attestation.  A lookup service like DNS can provide
   the HI and registration proof (GEN-3 in [RFC9153]).

   Similarly, for Observers without Internet access, a 200-byte offline
   self-attestation could provide the same Remote ID ownership proof.
   This attestation would contain the HDA's signing of the UA's HHIT,
   itself signed by the UA's HI.  Only a small cache that contains the
   HDA's HI/HHIT and HDA meta-data is needed by the Observer.  However,
   such an object would just fit in the ASTM Authentication Message with
   no room for growth.  In practice, [drip-authentication] provides this
   offline self-attestation in two authentication messages: the HDA's
   certification of the UA's HHIT registration in a Link authentication
   message whose hash is sent in a Manifest authentication message.

   Hashes of any previously sent ASTM messages can be placed in a
   Manifest authentication message (GEN-2 in [RFC9153]).  When a
   Location/Vector Message (i.e., a message that provides UA location,
   altitude, heading, speed, and status) hash along with the hash of the
   HDA's UA HHIT attestation are sent in a Manifest authentication
   message and the Observer can visually see a UA at the claimed
   location, the Observer has a very strong proof of the UA's Remote ID.

   All this behavior and how to mix these authentication messages into
   the flow of UA operation messages are detailed in
   [drip-authentication].

5.  DRIP Entity Tags (DETs) in DNS

   There are two approaches for storing and retrieving DETs using DNS.
   The following are examples of how this may be done.  This will serve
   as guidance to the actual deployment of DETs in DNS.  However, this
   document does not intent to provide a recommendation.  Further DNS-
   related considerations are covered in [drip-registries].

   *  As FQDNs, for example, ".icao.int.".

   *  Reverse DNS lookups as IPv6 addresses per [RFC8005].

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 18]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   A DET can be used to construct an FQDN that points to the USS that
   has the public/private information for the UA (REG-1 and REG-2 in
   [RFC9153]).  For example, the USS for the HHIT could be found via the
   following: assume the RAA is decimal 100 and the HDA is decimal 50.
   The PTR record is constructed as follows:

       100.50.det.uas.icao.int   IN PTR      foo.uss.icao.int.

   The individual DETs may be potentially too numerous (e.g., 60 - 600M)
   and dynamic (e.g., new DETs every minute for some HDAs) to store in a
   signed, DNS zone.  The HDA SHOULD provide DNS service for its zone
   and provide the HHIT detail response.  A secure connection (e.g.,
   DNS-over-TLS [RFC7858]) to the authoritative servers may be a viable
   alternative to DNSSEC.

   The DET reverse lookup can be a standard IPv6 reverse look up, or it
   can leverage off the HHIT structure.  If we assume a prefix of
   2001:30::/28, the RAA is 10 and the HDA is 20, the DET is:

       2001:30:280:1405:a3ad:1952:ad0:a69e

   A DET reverse lookup could be to:

       a69e.ad0.1952.a3ad.1405.280.30.2001.20.10.det.arpa.

   or:

       a3ad1952ad0a69e.5.20.10.30.2001.det.remoteid.icao.int.

   A 'standard' ip6.arpa RR has the advantage of only one Registry
   service supported.

       $ORIGIN  5.0.4.1.0.8.2.0.0.3.0.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.

       a3ad1952ad0a69e.20.10.det.rid.icao.int.

6.  Other UTM Uses of HHITs Beyond DET

   HHITs will be used within the UTM architecture beyond DET (and USS in
   UA ID registration and authentication), for example, as a Ground
   Control Station (GCS) HHIT ID.  Some GCS will use its HHIT for
   securing its Network Remote ID (to USS HHIT) and C2 transports.

   Observers may have their own HHITs to facilitate UAS information
   retrieval (e.g., for authorization to private UAS data).  They could
   also use their HHIT for establishing a HIP connection with the UA
   Pilot for direct communications per authorization.  Details about
   such issues are out of the scope of this document).

9.  Security Considerations

   The 64-bit hash in HHITs presents a real risk of second pre-image
   cryptographic hash attack Section 9.3.  There are no known (to the
   authors) studies of hash size to cryptographic hash attacks.  A
   Python script is available to randomly generate 1M HHITs that did not
   produce a hash collision which is a simpler attack than a first or
   second pre-image attack.

   However, with today's computing power, producing 2^64 EdDSA keypairs
   and then generating the corresponding HHIT is economically feasible.
   Consider that a *single* bitcoin mining ASIC can do on the order of
   2^46 sha256 hashes a second or about 2^62 hashes in a single day.
   The point being, 2^64 is not prohibitive, especially as this can be
   done in parallel.

   Now it should be noted that the 2^64 attempts is for stealing a
   specific HHIT.  Consider a scenario of a street photography company
   with 1,024 UAs (each with its own HHIT); you'd be happy stealing any
   one of them.  Then rather than needing to satisfy a 64-bit condition
   on the cSHAKE128 output, you need only satisfy what is equivalent to
   a 54-bit condition (since there are 2^10 more opportunities for
   success).

   Thus, although the probability of a collision or pre-image attack is
   low in a collection of 1,024 HHITs out of a total population of 2^64,
   per Section 9.3, it is computationally and economically feasible.
   Therefore, the HHIT registration and HHIT/HI registration validation
   is strongly recommended.

   The DET Registry services effectively block attempts to "take over"
   or "hijack" a DET.  It does not stop a rogue attempting to
   impersonate a known DET.  This attack can be mitigated by the
   receiver of messages containing DETs using DNS to find the HI for the
   DET.  As such, use of DNSSEC by the DET registries is recommended to
   provide trust in HI retrieval.

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 23]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   The 60-bit hash for DETs with 8-bit OGAs have a greater hash attack
   risk.  As such its use should be restricted to testing and to small,
   well managed UAS/USS.

   Another mitigation of HHIT hijacking is if the HI owner (UA) supplies
   an object containing the HHIT and signed by the HI private key of the
   HDA such as detailed in [drip-authentication].

   The two risks with hierarchical HITs are the use of an invalid HID
   and forced HIT collisions.  The use of a DNS zone (e.g., "det.arpa.")
   is a strong protection against invalid HIDs.  Querying an HDA's RVS
   for a HIT under the HDA protects against talking to unregistered
   clients.  The Registry service [drip-registries], through its HHIT
   uniqueness enforcement, provides against forced or accidental HHIT
   hash collisions.

   Cryptographically Generated Addresses (CGAs) provide an assurance of
   uniqueness.  This is two-fold.  The address (in this case the UAS ID)
   is a hash of a public key and a Registry hierarchy naming.  Collision
   resistance (more important that it implied second-preimage
   resistance) makes it statistically challenging to attacks.  A
   registration process [drip-registries] within the HDA provides a
   level of assured uniqueness unattainable without mirroring this
   approach.

   The second aspect of assured uniqueness is the digital signing
   (attestation) process of the DET by the HI private key and the
   further signing (attestation) of the HI public key by the Registry's
   key.  This completes the ownership process.  The observer at this
   point does not know what owns the DET, but is assured, other than the
   risk of theft of the HI private key, that this UAS ID is owned by
   something and is properly registered.

9.1.  DET Trust in ASTM messaging

   The DET in the ASTM Basic ID Message (Msg Type 0x0, the actual Remote
   ID message) does not provide any assertion of trust.  The best that
   might be done within this Basic ID Message is 4 bytes truncated from
   a HI signing of the HHIT (the UA ID field is 20 bytes and a HHIT is
   16).  This is not trustable; that is, too open to a hash attack.
   Minimally, it takes 84 bytes (Section 4.6) to prove ownership of a
   DET with a full EdDSA signature.  Thus, no attempt has been made to
   add DET trust directly within the very small Basic ID Message.

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 24]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   The ASTM Authentication Message (Msg Type 0x2) as shown in
   Section 4.6 can provide practical actual ownership proofs.  These
   attestations include timestamps to defend against replay attacks.
   But in themselves, they do not prove which UA sent the message.  They
   could have been sent by a dog running down the street with a
   Broadcast Remote ID module strapped to its back.

   Proof of UA transmission comes when the Authentication Message
   includes proofs for the ASTM Location/Vector Message (Msg Type 0x1)
   and the observer can see the UA or that information is validated by
   ground multilateration.  Only then does an observer gain full trust
   in the DET of the UA.

   DETs obtained via the Network RID path provides a different approach
   to trust.  Here the UAS SHOULD be securely communicating to the USS,
   thus asserting DET trust.

9.2.  Privacy Considerations

   There is no expectation of privacy for DETs; it is not part of the
   privacy normative requirements listed in, Section 4.3.1, of
   [RFC9153].  DETs are broadcast in the clear over the open air via
   Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.  They will be collected and collated with other
   public information about the UAS.  This will include DET registration
   information and location and times of operations for a DET.  A DET
   can be for the life of a UA if there is no concern about DET/UA
   activity harvesting.

   Further, the MAC address of the wireless interface used for Remote ID
   broadcasts are a target for UA operation aggregation that may not be
   mitigated through MAC address randomization.  For Bluetooth 4 Remote
   ID messaging, the MAC address is used by observers to link the Basic
   ID Message that contains the RID with other Remote ID messages, thus
   must be constant for a UA operation.  This message linkage use of MAC
   addresses may not be needed with the Bluetooth 5 or Wi-Fi PHYs.
   These PHYs provide for a larger message payload and can use the
   Message Pack (Msg Type 0xF) and the Authentication Message to
   transmit the RID with other Remote ID messages.  However, it is not
   mandatory to send the RID in a Message Pack or Authentication
   Message, so allowance for using the MAC address for UA message
   linking must be maintained.  That is, the MAC address should be
   stable for at least a UA operation.

   Finally, it is not adequate to simply change the DET and MAC for a UA
   per operation to defeat historically tracking a UA's activity.

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 25]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   Any changes to the UA MAC may have impacts to C2 setup and use.  A
   constant GCS MAC may well defeat any privacy gains in UA MAC and RID
   changes.  UA/GCS binding is complicated with changing MAC addresses;
   historically UAS design assumed these to be "forever" and made setup
   a one-time process.  Additionally, if IP is used for C2, a changing
   MAC may mean a changing IP address to further impact the UAS
   bindings.  Finally, an encryption wrapper's identifier (such as ESP
   [RFC4303] SPI) would need to change per operation to insure operation
   tracking separation.

   Creating and maintaining UAS operational privacy is a multifaceted
   problem.  Many communication pieces need to be considered to truly
   create a separation between UA operations.  Simply changing the DET
   only starts the changes that need to be implemented.

9.3.  Collision Risks with DETs

   The 64-bit hash size does have an increased risk of collisions over
   the 96-bit hash size used for the other HIT Suites.  There is a 0.01%
   probability of a collision in a population of 66 million.  The
   probability goes up to 1% for a population of 663 million.  See
   Appendix C for the collision probability formula.

   However, this risk of collision is within a single "Additional
   Information" value, i.e., a RAA/HDA domain.  The UAS/USS registration
   process should include registering the DET and MUST reject a
   collision, forcing the UAS to generate a new HI and thus HHIT and
   reapplying to the DET registration process.

Appendix A.  EU U-Space RID Privacy Considerations

   EU is defining a future of airspace management known as U-space
   within the Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) undertaking.
   Concept of Operation for EuRopean UTM Systems (CORUS) project
   proposed low-level Concept of Operations [corus] for UAS in EU.  It
   introduces strong requirements for UAS privacy based on European GDPR
   regulations.  It suggests that UAs are identified with agnostic IDs,
   with no information about UA type, the operators or flight
   trajectory.  Only authorized persons should be able to query the
   details of the flight with a record of access.

   Due to the high privacy requirements, a casual observer can only
   query U-space if it is aware of a UA seen in a certain area.  A
   general observer can use a public U-space portal to query UA details
   based on the UA transmitted "Remote identification" signal.  Direct
   remote identification (DRID) is based on a signal transmitted by the
   UA directly.  Network remote identification (NRID) is only possible
   for UAs being tracked by U-Space and is based on the matching the
   current UA position to one of the tracks.

   The project lists "E-Identification" and "E-Registrations" services
   as to be developed.  These services can follow the privacy mechanism
   proposed in this document.  If an "agnostic ID" above refers to a
   completely random identifier, it creates a problem with identity
   resolution and detection of misuse.  On the other hand, a classical
   HIT has a flat structure which makes its resolution difficult.  The
   Hierarchical HITs provide a balanced solution by associating a
   registry with the UA identifier.  This is not likely to cause a major
   conflict with U-space privacy requirements, as the registries are
   typically few at a country level (e.g., civil personal, military, law
   enforcement, or commercial).

Appendix B.  The 14/14 HID split

   The following explains the logic behind selecting to divide the 28
   bits of the HID into 2 14-bit components.

Moskowitz, et al.        Expires 15 October 2022               [Page 30]
Internet-Draft            DRIP Entity Tag (DET)               April 2022

   At this writing ICAO has 273 member "States", each may want to
   control RID assignment within its National Air Space (NAS).  Some
   members may want separate RAAs to use for Civil, general Government,
   and Military use.  They may also want allowances for competing Civil
   RAA operations.  It is reasonable to plan for 8 RAAs per ICAO member
   (plus regional aviation organizations like in the European Union).
   Thus at a start a 4,096 RAA space is advised.

   There will be requests by commercial entities for their own, RAA
   allotments.  Examples could include international organizations that
   will be using UAS and international delivery service associations.
   These may be smaller than the RAA space needed by ICAO member States
   and could be met with a 2,048 space allotment, but as will be seen,
   might as well be 4,096 as well.

   This may well cover currently understood RAA entities.  There will be
   future new applications, branching off into new areas.  So yet
   another space allocation should be set aside.  If this is equal to
   all that has been reserved, we should allow for 16,384 (2^14) RAAs.

   The HDA allocation follows a different logic from that of RAAs.  Per
   Appendix C, an HDA should be able to easily assign 63M RIDs and even
   manage 663M with a "first come, first assigned" registration process.
   For most HDAs this is more than enough, and a single HDA assignment
   within their RAA will suffice.  Most RAAs will only delegate to a
   couple HDAs for their operational needs.  But there are major
   exceptions that point to some RAAs needing large numbers of HDA
   assignments.

   Delivery service operators like Amazon (est. 30K delivery vans) and
   UPS (est. 500K delivery vans) may choose, for anti-tracking reasons,
   to use unique RIDs per day or even per operation.  30K delivery UA
   could need 11M upwards to 44M RIDs.  Anti-tracking would be hard to
   provide if the HID were the same for a delivery service fleet, so
   such a company may turn to an HDA that provides this service to
   multiple companies so that who's UA is who's is not evident in the
   HID.  A USS providing this service could well use multiple HDA
   assignments per year, depending on strategy.

   Perhaps a single RAA providing HDAs for delivery service (or similar
   behaving) UAS could 'get by' with a 2048 HDA space (11-bits).  So the
   HDA space could well be served with only 12 bits allocated out of the
   28-bit HID space.  But as this is speculation, and it will take years
   of deployment experience, a 14-bit HDA space has been selected.

   There may also be 'small' ICAO member States that opt for a single
   RAA and allocate their HDAs for all UA that are permitted in their
   NAS.  The HDA space is large enough that some to use part for

   government needs as stated above and for small commercial needs.  Or
   the State may use a separate, consecutive RAA for commercial users.
   Thus it would be 'easy' to recognize State-approved UA by HID high-
   order bits.

Appendix C.  Calculating Collision Probabilities

   The accepted formula for calculating the probability of a collision
   is:

       p = 1 - e^{-k^2/(2n)}

       P   Collision Probability
       n   Total possible population
       k   Actual population

   The following table provides the approximate population size for a
   collision for a given total population.
