XSOC-QSIG/CGA: Cryptographic Gate Authorization for Scoped Artifact Signing and Secure Release

Key Points

To formalize a cryptographic gate authorization method for secure signing and release of digital artifacts.
Details the AC-AGENT-CGA framework
Implements per-action, per-target, per-temporal, and per-epoch scoping
Includes a three-channel fail-closed revocation system
Defines 14 typed denial reasons for authorization failures.
Establishes a framework for enhanced security in digital signing processes
Provides a structured approach for artifact authentication and revocation
Enhances clarity in authorization processes through detailed scoping parameters.

Abstract

Companion technical specification to DSKAG-IT-SIG (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.19457812). Formalizes AC-AGENT-CGA: cryptographic gate authorization embedded in the DSKAG signature key derivation with per-action, per-target, per-temporal, per-epoch scoping, three-channel fail-closed revocation, and 14 typed denial reasons.
