  2. Why cooperate globally • CAP can be used by anyone for anything, anywhere, at any time • No way to control CAP use However… • Common interests may exist among user communities regarding “CAP identifiers” concerning • Creation • Administration • Discovery • Verification • Use

  3. CAP Identifier Value Propositions • Enhance the value of the CAP messages • Enable widespread sharing of the related event information • Enable analysis of events over long periods of time • Enhance the security of CAP messages • Enable information associated with the message to be obtained for verification • Enhance the flexibility of CAP messages • Enable new or additional information associated with the message to be obtained, e.g., message status

  4. What are CAP identifiers • message schema or module identifier • individual message identifier • associated event identifier • identifiers for the entities (persons, organizations, or objects, physical or virtual) associated with the handling chain of the message • Creator (source) • Sender • Conveyor • Recipient • identifiers for policies associated with the message • message language identifier

  5. Identifier Principles - Mandatory • CAP identifiers MUST be globally unique in a common namespace • The CAP identifier common namespace MUST accommodate distributed, autonomous, dynamic, extensible CAP uses and communities. • CAP identifiers MUST be structured to enable autonomous, distributed global discovery through hierarchical recursive queries in the hierarchy. • CAP identifiers MUST not exceed a length of [TBD] or a hierarchical depth exceeding [TBD] levels

  6. Identifier Principles - Optional • CAP identifiers SHOULD have minimal internationaliz-ation impediments, e.g., consist of numbers • CAP identifiers SHOULD be structured so that usage, geographical, jurisdictional, and global hierarchical assignments can exist concurrently in the overall namespace (see next slide) • Registrars that assign CAP identifiers SHOULD obtain, with levels of assurance sufficient for the application, information concerning the registrants or objects to which the identifiers are assigned • Registrars that assign CAP identifiers SHOULD, as appropriate for the application or usage, support common structured query-response availability of the registrant or object information or a pointer to the information location for other users within the same community
