This Work Group will create a set of best practice documents
around:
- The handling of attributes by Identity Providers, Relying
Parties, and Service Providers
- The definition and proposed use for contexts
- The definition, best use, requirements and criteria of an
Attribute Broker
The Work Group will also continue the work started by the
Attribute Management Discussion Group to keep the Repository of
links to know work in the attribute space up to date, making sure
that relevant work from other Kantara Work Groups as well as
outside organizations and governments are collected and shared.
The Work Group will explore the concept of an Attribute Broker,
defining what an Attribute Broker is, the characteristics of a
good attribute broker, and how the use of an Attribute Broker
enhances privacy. This will turn in to a set of use cases, a
white paper, and eventually a Best Practices document.
