Formal Proposal: A Deterministic (No-Token) Alternative to DBSC

Dear Anthony, Dan, and Mike,

With the release of Chrome 145 and the graduation of DBSC to stable , we are submitting an alternative architectural approach that eliminates the "Procedural Ceremony" of session management.
Our proposal, PADIT (Post-Authentication Device Identity in Transaction), moves identity assurance from the application layer to a hardware-bound mTLS connection. By utilizing the FIDO2 PRF extension or TPM keys as entropy for a TLS 1.3 External PSK handshake, we establish a deterministic state where the existence of the communication is the mathematical proof of identity.

Attached for your review:

  *   Formal Letter: Outlining why the transport layer is the natural home for identity.
  *   The PADIT Whitepaper: A deep dive into the "No-Token" transport-layer approach.
  *   Whitepaper: "Architecting for a Secure Internet," detailing the roadmap for DIT (Device Identity) and LIT (Live Identity).

We have simultaneously reached out to the IETF TLS Working Group regarding the transport-layer implications and request the opportunity to present this model at an upcoming WebAuthn or WebAppSec meeting.

Sincerely,
Thi Nguyen-Huu
