Session Abstract

To facilitate the use of federated identity in managing access to
applications where a false identity may pose a significant risk, the InCommon Federation is working on a new identity assurance profile, commonly known as InCommon Silver. The framework and accompanying profile describe the rationale and processes involved in certifying an InCommon Federation
Identity Provider as capable of providing identity assertions grounded in defined business and operational practices and credential technologies.



This birds-of-a-feather session will present the proposed framework and
profile and discuss possible campus impacts and next steps.
