Participant updates

Discussion

KIAF-5415

Ken reviewed the document, did not have major concerns. One issue with the comparison of definitions of terms between Kantara and the 29115.  Discussion of the content and usage of this document and KIAF-5463.  Ken confirms that the docs are ancillary to the IAF, might be useful when implementing something or preparing for an assessment. Scott and RGW discussed Richard's request for comment about whether to incorporate credential pre-processing requirements in the IAF.

RAA and AAS to ARB Policy Guidance

Richard is uncomfortable with the classification, it's not policy guidance. Maybe call it policy, not policy guidance?  After some discussion, ARB procedures is agreed upon as.

Richard Wilsher made a motion to classify the RAA and AAS as "ARB Policy", Scott Shorter seconded.  No objection, the motion passed.

FICAM Comment Period

Any objection to comments by any members?

Ken was concerned with the identification of specific documents, not sure how to capture that recommendation.  Canada guidance describes foundational sources of evidence, leaves it up to the community to establish those. Immigration documents or birth records are foundational, passport or RL are secondary sources.  Scott and Adam both suggest bringing this to their attentioned.

Richard said to keep in mind that Chi's email is about points for consideration. They didn't make a definitive statement, consider reframing. If the government were to propose XYZ.

Scott will write a note about how these stronger requirements can be applied at a newly defined higher level of assurance.

Ken suggests we write a comment that here are some thoughts, further discussion will prove valuable, including active involvement of all interested parties.

Adam agrees and notes that they said there would be opportunity to review and discuss but have not enabled that review and feedback process.

RGW suggests there would be an editing group with open participation, draft disposition, meeting to discuss draft disposition, repeat and improve. Find out if there is common ground or find out if there is not common ground.  Both Federal and non-Federal clients.

Adam shares news from Paul Grassi who said in front of FIDO alliance - expecting a minor revision release of 800-63 in the Spring, expecting changes that will effectively eliminate LOA2, certain authentication modes to be eliminated for not being strong enough, and clarification of identity proofing questions on the table.
