REFEDs identify 4 types of specifications:

• Entity Category
• Entity Attribute
• Profile
• Metadata Extension
• Framework

Entity Categories, defined in RFC8409, are metadata 'labels' applied to either identity providers or services which may be used under certain conditions, as described in the Entity Category specification, to indicate a grouping of entities. Entity Categories may be used to signal commonly used attribute requirements, or commitment to a certain set of behavioural rules.

Research and Scholarship

Hide From Discovery

The discovery process, and hence the user flow for an issuer is fundementally different from discovery as used in multilateral SAML federations. Hence this specification is deemed not relevant
