White papers and discussion

  • ??REFEDS Attribute Management Working Group report
    • This work is being done by REFEDS (https://refeds.org/), an international group of research and education federation representatives chartered by TERENA (Trans-European Research and Education Networking Association) to discuss issues involving identity and access management.  This is a work in progress and touches on some very interesting areas of attribute management.
  • InCommon Federation
    • Abstract: New methods of managing attributes promise to make federation easier to use and to operate. The key elements are: publishing of attribute requirements, support for user consent, and common attribute policies. Software and services that provide these features are becoming available, but will require InCommon participants to align their policy and technology deployments to actually realize the potential benefits across the federation.

Tools

  • uApprove
    • A tool for the user that allows them to see and approve sharing of specific attributes to other sites (Shibboleth/SAML tool).
  • Trusted Attribute Aggregation Service
    • TAAS acts as a secure service to link multiple IdP/AAs together using persistent identifiers without actually requiring the service that is performing the linking to know anything about the user at all. The TAAS then stores the attribute types that the IdPs return as part of the account. It can then work as a proxy IdP service that authenticates the user at an IdP and retrieves the user attributes that are requested by the SP from multiple AAs.
