RFC 8226: Secure Telephone Identity Credentials: Certificates

Still current, but amended. Parts of this document are changed or extended by RFC 9118. Read both.

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

In order to prevent the impersonation of telephone numbers on the Internet, some kind of credential system needs to exist that cryptographically asserts authority over telephone numbers. This document describes the use of certificates in establishing authority over telephone numbers, as a component of a broader architecture for managing telephone numbers as identities in protocols like SIP.
