analyse how much has been developed to leverage federated access with other authentication systems used in the R&E communities, in the eGov space and in the commercial sector;

research a possible solution to link identities in the contest of higher levels of assurance, attribute providers and guest identities;

assess existing technologies to provide SSO for non-Web applications (cloud, storage and so on) and offer recommendations for their usage;

develop a risk-based model for existing AAI solutions;

propose models for supporting guest identities (NRENs’ in-house solutions vs commercially-offered solutions should be explored);

define a blueprint architecture to enable web and non-web SSO capabilities across different infrastructures, integrating attribute providers/group management tools operated by user-communities;

provide models for federated authorisation: how to integrate attributes and permissions from diverse communities, making them available at the federation level in a consistent and secure way.
