Abstract
This document describes a password authentication mechanism, called YAP-SHA-256-TLS-UNIQ, for use in protocols which support Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) framework. The mechanism relies on security services provided by a lower layer, such as Transport Layer Security (TLS), to protect the authentication exchange, and subsequent application data exchange, from common attacks. The YAP-SHA-256-TLS-UNIQ mechanism can be viewed as an alternative to other password-based SASL mechanism, such as PLAIN, CRAM-MD5, and DIGEST-MD5.
