Participant updates

Discussion

  • Discussion on Draft S3A document
    • FICAM TFS is based on comparability of TFs to what FICAM has (processes)
    • Concern is that the comparability is more the exception rather than the rule in the document - true? 
      • Bjorn - pretty close - if an alternative approach is implemented, then it should be evaluated to determine if it is comparable to the original intention
      • RGW - the document is looking at comparability to the Kantara Framework criteria
      • Rich - the question is more a question of comparability between what things
      • RGW - caution that FICAM is not the totality of Kantara's role - if a service provider is not concerned about FICAM then they should not necessarily be evaluated against the original FICAM comparability rules
      • Scott - the IAF criteria are comparable to FICAM requirements. They should be met - but should be allowed to meet the criteria using 'comparable' ways.
      • The word 'exception' is causing grief. 
      • Intent is that the risks are evaluated and mitigated appropriately if the criteria are not met exactly as described, but using a different way.
      • Bjorn - this is more a question of 'comparable controls' not 'comparable conformity' 
      • RGW - sees it the other way around 
      • Maybe: the criteria are based on requirements to mitigate risks; the criteria often describe ways to mitigate that risk; if the controls are the same as the criteria then no issue; if the controls do not match but meet the underlying requirements then they are 'comparable controls'
    • Carry over to May 29 to allow for document to be read.
  • FICAM Mapping work
    • Work continues on the 'core' criteria
    • Spreadsheet has been developed by Furr and Alterman
    • Mapping of threat vectors to requirements and FICAM element
    • In a review cycle right now
