Demonstrations & Discussions • PASE, U Wisc, Steve Devoti & Mark Weber • I2 services, Internet2, Mike LaHaye • WS-Grouper, Cornell, Joy Veronneau • MyVocs, UAB, Jill Gemmill & John-Paul Robinson • Clinical Roles & Privs, FCCC, Frank Manion 2
Synthesis, Gaps • Signet & grouper fitness for purpose • Gap between current state and potential participant usage • AuthZ mgmt practice: current vs. desired • Next steps • Workshop format & program 3
Signet & Grouper Fitness for Purpose • Consistency, packaging, “I2MI common criteria” • Unnecessary differences, internationalization, customization & “upgrade protection”, common quick-start package • Better error handling • Work on interfaces for provisioning • Web services, LDAP, XML, XACML?… • Is Grouper UI usable by the masses? • If we provide web services interface, do we need to provide UIs? • Do we need LDAP integration (in particular)? • Subject API has promise • Somehow support dynamic groups 4
AuthZ Management Practice: Current vs. Desired • We grok groups, less so rich privilege structures • Need clearer articulation of a comprehensive authZ management model & case studies • Experiences at Stanford, U Wash, UC Irvine, others? • Identify solutions to common problems? E.g. paper-based access approval workflows • We get that distributing authority requires an authZ management infrastructure, but we don’t get how to hook that up to operational infrastructures • Interfaces for provisioning need work • Develop best practices • Models for aggregating distant authorities 5
Next Steps • Develop orienting materials • AuthZ recipe • Integrated framework for I2MI tools • Develop best practices • Survey leading to white paper • Further product development • Meet I2MI common criteria (that we must define) • Web services 6
Workshop Format & Program • Install Fest • Lacked sufficient orienting reference architecture • Have hard copy of install fest instructions • Post-install test suite • Workshop • Cover the API(s) themselves • Insert feedback here… 7
