CMP
Certificate Management Protocol

The processes involved in PKE (Public Key Encryption) are defined in the CMP (Certificate Management Protocol). The original process was specified by the PKIX (Public-Key Infrastructure (X.509)) Working Group under RFC 2510. A new, more robust, management protocol is under consideration by the IETF (Internet Engineering Test Force) and is known as CMPv2.
