This feature is used to add security information in a message which will be used to handle authorizations and access rights.

It implements the security service "security labels" defined in RFC 2634 Enhanced Security Services for S/MIME. A security label is a set of security information regarding the sensitivity of the content that is protected by S/MIME encapsulation.

A security label is composed of:

• Security Policy Identifier
• Security Classification (optional)
• Privacy Mark (optional)
• Security Categories (optional)

Additional resources:

• Technical Documentation
• RFC 2634 - section 3 - Enhanced Security Services for S/MIME
• RFC 3114 - Implementing Company Classification Policy with the S/MIME Security Label
• RFC 4134 - Examples of S/MIME Messages
• Screencast

Installation

This feature is integrated in Trustedbird 2.
