AARC-G021 (was AARC2-JRA1.1A) | Guideline on the exchange of specific assurance information between Infrastructures | Increasingly Research Infrastructures and generic e-Infrastructures compose an 'effective' ‘effective’ assurance profile derived from several sources. The assurance elements may come from an institutional identity provider (IdP), from community-provided information sources, from step-up authentication services, and from controls placed upon the user, the community, or the Infrastructure Proxy through either policy or technical enforcement. Knowledge about the upstream source of either identity or authenticator can also influence the risk perception of the Infrastructure and result in a modification of the assurance level, e.g. because it has involved a social identity provider or perhaps a government e-ID. The granularity of this composite assurance profile is attuned to the risk assessment specific to the Infrastructure or Infrastructures, and is often both more fine-grained and more specific than what can reasonably be expressed by generic IdPs or consumed by generic service providers.Yet it is desirable to exchange as complete as possible the , yet it is desirable to exchange the resulting assurance assertion obtained between Infrastructures , so that assurance elements it need not be re-asserted or re-computed by a recipient Infrastructure or Infrastructure service provider. This document describes the assurance profiles that are recommended to be used by the e-Infrastructures and research infrastructures AAI platforms to exchange user authentication information Infrastructure AAI Proxies between infrastructures. |

| AARC2-JRA1.1F | Guidelines for uniquely identifying users across infrastructures | A variety of different user identifiers in different formats is used by research infrastructures and e-infrastructures for the identification of users. This guideline defines how user identifiers should be shared between infrastructures in order to address inconsistencies in user identification practises. To this end, the document provides guidelines for expressing the identifier of a user for cross-infrastructure access to resources. Identification of users within the boundaries of a single infrastructure is out side of scope of this document. |

| AARC2-JRA1.2A | Guidelines for scalable and consistent authorisation across multi-SP environments | Managing authorisation at each SP individually does not scale (although in some case it might be required). So, how to do it? Provide guidelines on how one can manage authorisation across multiple SPs, possibly operated by different entities. For some cases centrally managed entitlements (conveying group/role membership for example) might be more than enough. | New doc: see above |

Requirements and guidelines for SPs using alternative mechanisms and protocols for federated access. 2 OIDC Based Services in research) | Capture what OIDC-based services need to understand, which schemes to follow in order to benefit from federated identities, that currently are exclusively in the SAML world. This will probably include pointers to documents that specify mappings between SAML and OIDC expression of attributes, entitlements or claims. There is some overlap with AARC2-JRA1.3.B "Guidelines for registering OIDC Relying Parties in AAIs for international research collaboration" |

| AARC2-JRA1.2C | Authentication-assurance-elevation requirements and guidelines for SPs in the context of international research collaboration (was: 1. Step-up authentication requirements and guidelines for SPs, renamed in A holistic view on Assurance elevation) | This document collects use-cases and requirements from the communities to describe the current state of the field. The goal is to also derive a common pattern to guide future implementations of Step-up authentication. |

| AARC2-JRA1.2D | Requirements and Implementations for Authentication Freshness (was: Guidelines for step-up authentication via forced reauthentication) | This document describes mechanisms for forcing a user to perform an additional login (reauthentication) in order to ensure that the user who is accessing a protected resource is the same person who initially authenticated at the start of the session. Forced reauthentication can therefore provide additional protection for sensitive resources. |

Can we minimise the number of places that need this information, in order to improve maintainability and scalability? |
