Controlled Session Ticket Architecture: Public Technical Release, Version 1.0

The Controlled Session Ticket Architecture (CST) is a post-authentication architecture for browser and equivalent client sessions. It replaces transferable browser-held session authority with one exact relationship governed by one server ticket TS, one corresponding browser ticket TB, and a ticket-specific browser binding. A CST-controlled scope uses no session cookies, bearer tokens, refresh tokens, or ordinary browser continuation material. Every protected exchange remains dependent on the current TS/TB relationship. Copied or exported browser-session material cannot reproduce protected access elsewhere. The relying server or browser can terminate an exact session unilaterally by making its own corresponding ticket terminally absent. Either boundary ends the session and every further dependent continuation without waiting for acknowledgment, credential expiry, rotation, or refresh. A conforming browser also maintains an Established Sessions inventory with authenticated Verify and controls to terminate one, selected, or all sessions in its own scope. Version 1.0 contains the Public Technical Overview, Public Architecture Specification, Technical Differentiation Memorandum, and Technical Requirements, Conformance Tests, and Falsification Schedule. The PDF files are the canonical rendered documents. The corresponding DOCX files are editable source copies of the same release.
