Services Provided By DVCS
The current specification defines 4 types of validation and certification services: - Certification of Possession of Data (cpd), - Certification of Claim of Possession of Data (ccpd), - Validation of Digitally Signed Document (vsd), and - Validation of Public Key Certificates (vpkc).
A DVCS MUST support at least a subset of these services. A DVCS may support a restricted vsd service allowing to validate data validation certificates. On completion of each service, the DVCS produces a data validation certificate - a signed document containing the validation results and trustworthy time information.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“Civil servants and priests, soldiers and ballet-dancers, schoolmasters and police constables, Greek museums and Gothic steeples, civil list and services list—the common seed within which all these fabulous beings slumber in embryo is taxation.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
