Questions for SP communities (e.g. research infrastructure projects or individual SP admins). (Interview or web based survey) 

How important it is for you that...

Identity concept

• an account belongs to an individual person?
• and s/he is traceable (i.e. the home organization knows and can reach him/her)?
• and Home Organisation is willing to penalize him/her if s/he misbehaves?
• that you (as an SP community) can block him/her from the service?

• user identifiers are persistent i.e. not reassigned to another person?
• user identifiers are shared by multiple SPs  (i.e. not pairwise/targeted)

Initial proof of identity

• the home organization has a documented identity vetting process?
• the identity vetting process is f2f or equivalent?

On-line authentication

• passwords?
• passwords with quality quarantees? (What kind of?)
• two factor authentication?

Would you like to use step-up authentication as a service? <TODO: Explain step-up authN>

• if it costs you money
• if it costs you work (operating a registration authority)

Freshness of user data

• accounts are closed as an individual departs? How promptly?
• eduPersonAffiliation value is updated as an individual departs? How promptly?

Provenance of the identity and authentication

• Is it enough that the Home Organisation self-asserts the above?
• plus someone who has some enforcement rights (e.g. Home identity federation can remove “compliant” tag from the HO)?
• also internal audits needed?
• also external audits needed?

Do we want to mix these things here

• attribute population; which attributes the Home Organisation populates for users
• attribute release; which attributes the Home Organisation is willing to release
