AARC profile for expressing community identity attributes

This document defines a profile for expressing the attributes of a researcher’s digital identity. The profile contains a common list of attributes and definitions based on existing standards and best practises in research & education. The attributes include identifiers, profile information, and community attributes such as group membership and role information.Google doc

AARC Blueprint Architecture 2025
The AARC Blueprint Architecture (BPA) provides a set of building blocks for software architects and technical decision makers who are designing and implementing access management solutions for international research collaborations. This document describes the evolution of the AARC Blueprint Architecture, starting with a summary of the changes since AARC-BPA-2019.Google doc (Initial Revision)Recommendations for Token Lifetimes

AARC-G081

This document provides a short overview over selected types of tokens used to identify and authorise users. We analyse the different properties of tokens and categorise available authorisation patterns to give recommendations about the lifetimes of tokens associated with specific properties and authorisation levels. The document is between policy and architecture working group

AARC-G100Guidelines for Establishing Trust between AARC-compliant AAI services using OpenID FederationThis specification provides guidance for enabling interaction and establishing trust among AARC-compliant proxies that implement OAuth 2.0 Authorization Servers (AS) and Resource Servers (RS) residing in distinct domains. These interactions are facilitated through trusted third parties referred to as Trust Authorities, which are entities issuing authoritative statements about entities that participate in an identity federation. The federation uses OpenID Federation. This document is intended for operators and implementers of AAI services and defines two trust profiles: G100.1 (Basic Trust Model), specifying the minimum requirements for establishing trust between proxies using OpenID Federation trust chains, and G100.2 (Fine-Grained Trust Model), which extends the basic model with policy-based trust through the use of Trust Marks and metadata policies.

AARC-I101Verifiable Credentials and Digital Identity Wallets in Research CollaborationsThis informational document outlines how Verifiable Credentials (VCs) and Digital Identity Wallets—as defined by the W3C Verifiable Credentials model and the European Digital Identity framework (eIDAS 2.0)—relate to AARC-compliant Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructures (AAIs). It summarises key standards, examines how AARC services could act as verifiers or issuers of VCs, and highlights trust and interoperability aspects relevant to research collaborations. The document does not define normative behaviour but provides background for future guidelines and pilot work.
