PKI vs Non-PKI based trust models
by Rainer Hörbe 18 Mar '11

18 Mar '11

John, Patrick and I had a discussion about the pros and cons of federation models based on credentials versus assertions. The attached document is a preliminary result with conclusions like PKI and non-PKI federation models need to be combined in most cases at higher LoA To implement a federation an RFC 3647-style policy is insufficient; A more complete Trust Framework is needed Whereas the Higher Education sector favors brokered trust, e-Government and Industry prefer the PKI approach. But it is not a question of one way or the other. Request for feedback: I wonder where this discussion should be homed. FIWG, BCTF and TFMM are related, and it is also an extrakantarian issue. Any interest to take over this discussion? - Rainer

To facilitate the proliferation of Identity Federations the BCTF (Business Cases for Trust Federation Discussion Group) is collecting, documenting and classifying projects of this category. This is not about technology, standards or areas of interest (SAML, OpenID, WS-Trust, etc.) but about business (FICAM, InCommon, SAFE, TSCP, STORK, etc.). So far have named 25 projects and described 3 projects in detail: http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/bctf/Implemented+Trust+Fram… We need to know about more projects and more about projects. I am asking you to contribute to this community effort in one or the other way: Provide a reference to similar lists that describe federation projects Name projects that you know and are not in the list (except higher edu - counts as a single project for now) Make contact to people who you think know more about this Submit more information on projects that need an overview and/or detailed description Be an editor for one or more items in the list If editing the wiki is an obstacle, please submit you contribution vie email to dg-bctf(a)kantarainitiative.org.

There is room for both front and back end attribute release mechanisms. I do not think the BAE is exclusively PIV only. ________________________________ From: wg-fi-bounces(a)kantarainitiative.org <wg-fi-bounces(a)kantarainitiative.org> To: Patrick Harding <pharding(a)pingidentity.com> Cc: dg-bctf(a)kantarainitiative.org <dg-bctf(a)kantarainitiative.org>; FI WG <WG-FI(a)kantarainitiative.org>; Curry Patrick <patrick.curry(a)federatedbusiness.org>; Kantara Leadership Council Kantara <LC(a)kantarainitiative.org> Sent: Mon Mar 14 13:27:45 2011 Subject: Re: [WG-FI] PKI vs Non-PKI based trust models Yes that is a popular solution inside Enterprises and some Gov. The problem is scalability and user consent. In the US PIV BAE case the permission to make a SAML query on the identifier (FASC-N) in the certificate is on a agency by agency basis. There is no way for the owner agency to know if the requester needs the info of if the user is asking for access. Given the high level of trust between agencies, they tend not make info available. The problem is as the distance between the parties gets larger, releasing information without some sort of user confirmation becomes more problematic. In those cases we have discussed using SAML Holder of Key between organizations to be able to provide more control over attribute release while maintaining the security of the session binding to the card keys. There are multiple approaches. John B. On 2011-03-14, at 11:47 AM, Patrick Harding wrote: +1 We have a number of customers who use PKI (for AuthN) in combination with SAML (for AuthZ). SAML is used to move user attributes from the IdP to the SP to allow the SP to make authorization decisions. These attributes are stored in a Directory at the IdP rather than being 'baked into' the users certificate. The main reason seems to be an expectation that these attributes will change much more often than the users certificate will be renewed. (And yes in this context SAML Assertions do start to sound an awful lot like 'attribute certiicates'). On Mon, Mar 14, 2011 at 10:50 AM, John Bradley <ve7jtb(a)ve7jtb.com<mailto:ve7jtb@ve7jtb.com>> wrote: It is a complicated almost religious discussion. I don't think assertions (SAML, openID) or PKI client Auth are going away any time soon. The trust model and technology are slightly disjoint discussions. People can use smartcards with self issued certificates and SAML providers can sign assertions with certificates with roots ross certified to specific PKI bridges. This is probably more a FIWG discussion. That is where the rubber hits the road for the more complicated cross federation issues, when it comes to trust models. For certificates vs assertions there is a privacy related issue. Depending on the use case. For Defence intelligence and Police credentials there may be no expectation of privacy or anonymity or privacy when your credential is used. However many privacy people in the Citizen to Gov use case want to stop correlating identifiers across sites. In some case there is a legal requirement for this. I helped start Xcert software (now RSA KeyOn) 12 years ago to work on federated identity issues using PKI client Auth. Why PKI failed in the consumer/internet space is a big topic. In the US FICAM anticipates the vast majority of external credentials it will accept to be assertion based. I should also mention that u-prove (zero knowledge prrof) cryptography contains elements of both certificates and assertions. I have limited expectations for any short term traction on that however. The reality is that the main driving force on the internet is access to API, and attributes. SSO is just something that is going along for the ride. The US Gov PIV card deployment needs BAE (SAML attribute query) to retrieve attributes and be useful. (perhaps overstated) Lets discuss how you want to separate the issues. If we tackle them all together we will probably get nowhere. John B.

New document structure available
by Rainer Hörbe 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

As agreed in the last meeting, I moved the tables from the wiki document (Implemented Trust Frameworks) to new google docs. I added the content structure as discussed. The table itself is reduced to a smaller number of columns, and there is ample space in a semi-structured format below. I started adding projects that came to my attention during the last couple of month, and ask you to add projects that you know and extend/correct what I wrote. Joni has reservations about using google docs because google docs are not in the Kantara toolbox. She asked me to move the documents back to the wiki within 30 days. Let us use this deadline to add enough content to make the documents stable. To get edit access to the documents you need to request this from me - google documents does not allow do delegate privilege management to others, only the owner can manage. Best regards Rainer Hörbe

Fraunhofer FOKUS, our gracious meeting hosts, would like to showcase demo/labs at the Kantara Initiative meeting May 16-18 in Berlin. For those groups meeting in person - referencing the attached - can you let me know your top 5 and I will try to schedule to best fit our meeting agenda:http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/GI/Kantara%20Initiat… Demos are 15-30 minutes, Labs could take up to 60 minutes.

FYI via simpleSAMLphp Fwd: Launching Federation Lab
by Joni Brennan 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

The announcement below may be of interest to the BCTF DG. Best Regards, =Joni ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Andreas Åkre Solberg <andreas.solberg(a)uninett.no> Date: 2011/1/25 Subject: Launching Federation Lab To: simplesamlphp(a)googlegroups.com I’m happy to make an early announcement of the availability of the Federation Lab toolkit. We would probably make a broader announcement after receiving feedback from the early testers. The initial set of tools and content available on Federation Lab is somewhat limited. There is plans for improving and extending the set of useful tool during the rest of the Identity Federation project period. If you have ideas for tools that would be useful, please tell us… What can you do with Federation Lab today? - You can login on Federation Lab using your existing Feide OpenIdP user account. Later on, we would like to connect the Federation Lab as a service provider to most european federation through eduGAIN. - A Service Provider Registry using SAMLmetaJS (javascript editor) for registering your test entities - Automated SAML Service Provider Tester: automated testing tool. - OpenIdP: Feide OpenIdP will automatically trust all test entities that are registered. A dedicated FedLab OpenIdP and TestShib are beeing configured soon… We will be contacting commercial vendors and offer them the opportunity to connect test IdPs to the FedLab. - Web-based SAML debugger. Encode and decode messages captured in the SAML flow. A new video screencast is available for those of you interested in learning about what this is, but not neccessarily wants to use the tool for yourself. https://rnd.feide.no/2011/01/25/launching-federation-lab/ We really want feedback on what you think about the Federation Lab. Kind regards Andreas Åkre Solberg GÉANT Identity Federation task leader UNINETT
