TL;DR
This document specifies XML (Extensible Markup Language) digital signature processing rules and syntax to provide integrity, message authentication, and/or signer authentication services for data of any type, whether located within the XML that includes the signature or elsewhere.

HMAC: Keyed-Hashing for Message Authentication
1,977 Citations1997Hugo Krawczyk, Mihir Bellare +1 more
This document describes HMAC, a mechanism for message authentication using cryptographic hash functions that can be used with any iterative cryptographic hash function, e.g., MD5, SHA-1, in combination with a secret shared key.
Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax
1,738 Citations1998Tim Berners‐Lee, Roy T. Fielding +1 more
This document defines the generic syntax of URI, including both absolute and relative forms, and guidelines for their use, and revises and replaces the generic definitions in RFC 1738 and RFC 1808.

578 Citations1996N. Freed, Nathaniel S. Borenstein
This set of documents, collectively called the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions, or MIME, redefines the format of messages to allow for MIME to be used in e-mail.
Uniform Resource Locators (URL)

Randomness Recommendations for Security
176 Citations1994D. Eastlake, Stephen Crocker +1 more
The use of pseudo-random processes to generate secret quantities can result in pseudo-security because the sophisticated attacker may find it easier to reproduce the environment that produced the secret quantities than to locate the quantities in the whole of the number space.
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (v3): UTF-8 String Representation of Distinguished Names
54 Citations1997M. Wahl, S. Kille +1 more
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol specification defines the string format for representing names, which is designed to give a clean representation of commonly used distinguished names, while being able to represent any distinguished name.
