Title : Expect-CT Extension for HTTP
Author : Emily Stark
Filename : draft-ietf-httpbis-expect-ct-02.txt
Pages : 18
Date : 2017-08-14
Abstract:
This document defines a new HTTP header, named Expect-CT, that allows
web host operators to instruct user agents to expect valid Signed
Certificate Timestamps (SCTs) to be served on connections to these
hosts. When configured in enforcement mode, user agents (UAs) will
remember that hosts expect SCTs and will refuse connections that do
not conform to the UA's Certificate Transparency policy. When
configured in report-only mode, UAs will report the lack of valid
SCTs to a URI configured by the host, but will allow the connection.
By turning on Expect-CT, web host operators can discover
misconfigurations in their Certificate Transparency deployments and
ensure that misissued certificates accepted by UAs are discoverable
in Certificate Transparency logs.
