  1. Web Authentication Enhancement(WAE - nee DIX) Friday, 0900-1130 Room 519A

  2. List of Problems to Solve • Identify myself to a web site • i.e., log in so that the web site knows I’m the same person who was there before • Give my personal information to a web site • i.e., fill out a form with my personal information without having to type it for the 1000th time.

  3. Constraints on the solution • Prevent others from claiming they're me to the web site • Prevent the web site from claiming they're me to other web sites • Prevent others from seeing my personal information • Prevent the web site from getting information I don't want to give it • Have 3rd parties verify my identity or personal information for the web site • Have 3rd parties hold my personal information that I will want to give to the web site

  4. EKR’s taxonomy • Capture-Resistant Credentials (CRC) • Hijack-Resistant Authentication (HRA) • Portable Credentials (PC) • Fill-in of Personal Information (FPI) • Common User Credentials (CUC) • Continuity of Identity (CI) • User-Friendly Names (UFN) • Assertion of External Claims (AEC) • Independent Assertion of Claims (IAC) • Private Authentication (PA)

  5. Figuring out an architecture • Job of the BOF is to choose which things are important • There are tradeoffs; first you have to decide what problem you want to solve • May take some divide-and-conquer; No half-solutions, but no ocean-boiling
