Abstract

This document specify how to compute data, "channel bindings", that is cryptographically bound to a specific Transport Layer Security (TLS) session. The intention is to use this data as a name of the secure channel for the purpose of a channel binding. The channel bindings can be used by authentication protocols to avoid tunneling attacks and security layer re-use. The data is derived using the TLS Pseudo-Random Function (PRF).
