Discussion

Rich Furr started a discussion on Component Services Assessment

  • A few years ago IAWG went through the exercise of splitting into component-based 
  • As of today, Kantara has only one approved component service - Experian
  • It would be interesting to learn the order of magnitude costs to be assessed
    • They would have to go through the common core SAC plus a number of other depending on their offered service
  • If the full CSP decides to use a component service provider, they negotiate prices down to offer end-user services at competitive prices
    • Is the cost of annual conformance assessment making it non-competitive to become approved?
  • Are there other models that would be more sustainable?
  • Comment: Remember that the SAC states that the CSP is accountable for all SACs no matter which entities deliver the services
    • So, to use an Approved Service Component the CSP must either use an Approved SC or include that SC in the overall assessment scope
  • This addresses the issue of cost model 
  • Outstanding questions: 
    • Why is there only one approved SC? 
    • Rich to reach out to contacts at possible SC as to why they are choosing to not go through the process at this time.
    • This could be a Kantara Marketing topic for discussion
    • Overall cost - it all depends on LOA and the state of readiness of the SC provider prior to being assessed
  • Surescripts - the idea of reuse of certifications across target customer bases is very interesting
  • IDESG - is looking at approaches to functioning as a conduit between different trust frameworks
    • The general idea is to work on the vocabulary and syntax to express a fine-grained componentization of the underlying requirements, so that where a requirement is satisfied by one certification program, it can be used/recognized by other certification programs
    • Take a look at http://trustmark.gtri.gatech.edu for descriptions of Georgia Tech's approach. They are currently an NSTIC Pilot and should have some results for sharing in late 2014.
  • Motion: To get volunteers to reach out to known service component providers to discover their views on the SC approach and approval process through participation: Furr; 
  • Seconded: Scott; 
  • Discussion none.
