I am in no way a subject matter expert in this field, but the bits I did understand were all easily understandable :-)

Section 1.2: CMS values are generated using ASN.1 [X680], which uses the Basic Encoding Rules (BER) and the Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) [X690]. Recommend: CMS values are generated using ASN.1 [X680], using the Basic Encoding Rules (BER) and the Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) [X690]. (Rationale: ASN.1 has many more encodings than this, and the original phrasing implies that these are the only two.) I'm a little surprised that there are no citations for Curve25519, Curve488, and "Schnorr's signature system." If it is realistic add citations for these, I believe it would be an improvement.
