DDSSEC_ — (meta)data_protection_kind takes incorrect values

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSSEC_-127
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    Section 9.4.1.2.5.5 says:
    "This element may take the binary values TRUE or FALSE"
    This is wrong, it should say: "The metadata protection kind element may take three possible values: NONE, SIGN, or ENCRYPT".

    Likewise it says:
    "EndpointSecurityAttributes shall be set to the binary value specified in the “data protection kind" element"

    This is wrong, it should say: "EndpointSecurityAttributes shall be set to FALSE if the value specified in the “metadata protection kind" element is NONE and shall be set to TRUE otherwise".

    Similar issues occur in section 9.4.1.2.5.6.
