titleReview the AEGIS endorsed policy guidelines required for AARC compliance and ensure their technical implementation

Why? Assurance means both knowing if the person on the other side is indeed the same user that you know, but also includes identity assurance, verifying that the person is indeed the one they claim to be: name and affiliation being the most visible elements.
