Abstract: This document is a specification that recommends particular methods
as
satisfying defined degrees of assurance for elevating trust in an electronic
identity credential, to assure the submitter's identity sufficiently to
support
elevation between each pair of assurance levels to transact business where
material amounts of economic value or personally identifiable data are
involved.
Alternative and optional methods may be included. The description of each
recommended method shall include functional definitions of the types of
identity
and assertion data employed by each method, and may include specification of
the
data services required in each elevation, substantive data exchange patterns
or
models, message exchange patterns or models, and such other elements as the
TC
deems useful.
TC Description: The OASIS Trust Elevation TC works to define a set of
standardized protocols that service providers may use to elevate the trust in
an
electronic identity credential presented to them for authentication. The
Trust
Elevation TC is intended to respond to suggestions from the public sector,
including the U.S. National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace
(NSTIC). The Trust Elevation TC promotes interoperability among multiple
identity providers--and among multiple identity federations and
frameworks--by
facilitating clear communication about common and comparable operations to
present, evaluate and apply identity [data/assertions] to sets of declared
authorization levels.
