| <title>The Project</title> |
| <p> |
| The XML Security project is aimed at providing implementation of |
| security standards for XML. Currently the focus is on the W3C |
| standards : |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><jump href="http://www.w3.org/Signature/"> |
| XML-Signature Syntax and Processing; and</jump> |
| </li> |
| <li><jump href="http://www.w3.org/Encryption/2001/"> |
| XML Encryption Syntax and Processing.</jump></li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> |
| Once these are implemented, |
| <jump href="http://www.w3.org/2001/XKMS">XML Key Management</jump> |
| is likely to be the next focus for the project. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Two libraries are currently available. |
| </p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>A Java library, which includes a mature Digital Signature |
| implementation. Encryption is currently under development.</li> |
| <li>A C++ library is also now available. Functionality is currently |
| more basic than that provided by the Java library.</li> |
| </ol> |
