Dear Kantara Community,
We have invited CERN to give a presentation about their interesting
projects on Authentication and Authorisation framework. Please find the
details below.
Date: Thursday, April 7, 2016
Time: 10:00am PDT / 17:00 UTC (GMT)
Speaker: Hannah Short, CERN IT Fellow
Presentation: Assurance profiles within the AARC Project
Dial in details will be provided soon
Hannah will focus on the various assurance related activities within the
Authentication and Authorisation for Research and Collaboration (AARC), LoA
profiles and the Security Incident Response Trust Framework for Federated
Identity (SIRTFI), and give a brief overview of the AARC project.
The AARC project brings together 20 different partners from among National
Research and Education Networks (NRENs) organisations, e-Infrastructures
service providers and libraries. AARC aims to develop and pilot an
integrated cross-discipline authentication and authorisation framework,
built on existing AAIs and on production federated infrastructures. More
information: https://aarc-project.eu
SIRTFI is a group supported by REFEDS, looking at processes for expressing
security incident handling requirements as an assurance profile for
federations and other requirements needed to effectively deploy and enhance
incident response processes for FIM. More information:
