Abstract:
This document specifies the Secure Collaborative State Workspace
Protocol (SCSWP), a stateful, continuously authenticated protocol
that enables multiple clients, operating from heterogeneous networks,
to securely access and collaboratively manage a shared file workspace
hosted on a central authoritative server.
SCSWP defines a complete protocol lifecycle encompassing client
provisioning via a Key-Dissolving bootstrap mechanism, mutual X.509
certificate-based identity authentication, ephemeral Elliptic-Curve
Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange producing a three-level
cryptographic key hierarchy (K1, K2, K3), continuous Dynamic Network
and Access (D/N/P/S) trust evaluation, per-client capability-based
authorization, workspace-aware congestion control with a dynamic
worker-pool scheduler, concurrent file-operation management via
mutual exclusion locks and optimistic version control, idempotent
operation execution, a hash-chained audit ledger, and session
continuity and recovery through the Dynamic Network and Access
Continuity (DNAC) mechanism.
The fundamental security principle of SCSWP is that client trust is
not established permanently at login time. Instead, identity, device
state, network context, session state, authorization state, resource
state, and workspace state are evaluated continuously and
cryptographically throughout the full lifetime of every connection.
