Overview of Documents:

Two Three years ago, Kantara developed Service Assessment Criteria (SAC) to be used in SP 800-63 rev.3 conformity assessments for identity proofing and authentication services at Assurance Level (AL) 2. These SAC were derived from the strictly normative requirements (i.e. criteria were only developed from guidance expressed using ‘SHALL’) of SP 800-63A and ’63B at IAL2 and AAL2’ respectively, as they applied to Credential Service providers (CSP).  Since their publication Kantara has granted a number of Approvals based on these criteria and anticipates growing interest in these Approvals in the short to medium term. 

...

Accordingly, attached are three XLS documents (KIAF-1430 63A_SAC v4.0.6, KIAF-1440 63B_SAC v4.0.3, KIAF-1450 63C_SAC v0.17.0).  Each document includes a control tab which we are seeking to have reviewed, namely the tabs labelled ‘63A/B_SAC’.

Kantara invites your review of these documents and asks that you submit any comments and proposed revisions on or before 2021-10-13. As this deadline will be strictly adhered to, late submissions will not be taken into account.

When commenting, please provide a three/four letter identifier in the column headed ‘Initials’ (e.g. your own initials or something to identify the entity on whose behalf you are commenting, and a #<sequence number>, to ensure easy unique identification of your comments) and your review comment in the adjacent right-hand column.  We will especially appreciate and respond to comments which offer some kind of solution (e.g. revised wording) in addition to a statement describing the problem which is being addressed.

This is an open invitation to comment. Kantara Initiative solicits feedback from potential users, developers and, other interested parties, whether Kantara Initiative members or not, for the sake of improving the interoperability and quality of its technical work.
