Abstract:

   This document specifies the PulseProof Sentinel Protocol (PPS), an
   experimental, technology-agnostic protocol for time-bound asymmetric
   authentication proofs.  PPS is not a new cryptographic primitive; it
   profiles established mechanisms -- Ed25519 signatures, SHA-256
   hashing, HKDF key derivation, and deterministic CBOR encoding --
   into a compact, interoperable verification model suited to offline,
   embedded, and non-browser environments where a full WebAuthn
   ceremony is unavailable.

   A PPS authentication event produces a Pulse: a signed statement
   bound to a relying-party identifier, time epoch, monotonic counter,
   expiration, and optional nonce, context, policy, and transaction
   data.  Because the verifier stores only public keys, PPS removes the
   shared-secret exposure problem inherent in TOTP.

   PulseProof Sentinel extends the basic Pulse model with several
   optional but interoperable security extensions:
