I'd like to particularly thank all the acknowledged and unacknowledged
contributors who have already pitched in their ideas, and look forward to
more helpful refinement from potential implementors and standards veterans
here.

Thanks a lot for the warm welcome.

The document named Holder-of-Key Web Browser SSO Profile Draft
(sstc-saml-holder-of-key-browser-sso-draft-01.odt) has been submitted by
Mr. Nathan Klingenstein to the OASIS Security Services (SAML) TC document
repository.

Document Description:
This profile allows for transport and validation of holder-of-key
assertions by standard HTTP user 
agents with no modification of client software and maximum compatibility
with existing 
deployments.  Most of the flows are as in standard Web Browser SSO, but an
x.509 certificate 
presented by the user agent supplies a valid keypair through client TLS
authentication for HTTP 
transactions. Cryptographic data resulting from TLS authentication is used
for holder-of-key 
validation of a SAML assertion.  This strengthens the assurance of the
resulting authentication 
context and protects against credential theft, giving the service provider
fresh authentication and 
attribute information without requiring it to perform successful validation
of the certificate.
