Research
| Wallet-based credentials can support research use cases by enabling portable and verifiable representation of user attributes such as institutional affiliation, collaboration membership, roles, and training. These credentials can be issued by trusted organisations (e.g. home institutions or research infrastructures) and reused across services and infrastructures, enabling more consistent access control. In this context, AAI components (e.g. AARC-compliant proxies such as Collaboration Management services - see AARC-G080) may act as verifiers of such credentials and translate them into authorisation decisions for downstream services. In some scenarios, services may also directly verify and consume such credentials |

UCScenario 3.1 | Access to publication servers | |||
UCScenario 3.2 | Research data management and linking of identities and publications | |||
UCScenario 3.3 | Connection to other identifiers / IDs | |||
UCScenario 3.4 | Collaborative creation of documents | |||
UCScenario 3.5 | Mobility of Researchers | |||
UCScenario 3.6 | Access to Services from national libraries / information centres | |||
UCScenario 3.7 | Access to central resources (i. e. cloud services) | Access decisions may rely on verifiable credentials representing institutional affiliation, as well as Virtual Organisation (VO) or research collaboration membership and role entitlements. Such credentials can be reused across research infrastructures and evaluated to enforce access control. | ||
UCScenario 3.8 | Management of virtual organisations | Membership and roles within Virtual Organisations (VOs) or research collaborations may be represented as verifiable credentials issued by Collaboration Management services. These credentials can be presented by users and reused across research infrastructures to support consistent authorisation decisions. | ||
