XDI Profiles * Profiles are for specific types of interactions, such as with a registry. Bindings talk about physical, on-the-wire messaging, whereas profiles talk about what is/isn't needed for specific types of transactions - security tokens, contract requirements, data requirements, etc. 4. XDI Security Mechanisms (Geoffrey and Peter) * One specific measure here would be environment attestations such as are being worked on by TCG. Geoffrey said that the problem now is how to interpret TCG attestation data, which requires a standard for producing higher-level behavior attestations (semantic attestations). It's a big leap, but should make TCG attestations much more useful. This is an area of specific effort within TCG now. Until this is available, security tokens such as SAML assertions can be used to assert that the receiving party has some kind of trust relationship. DELIVERABLE #3: XDI Service Dictionary V1 (Andy and Drummond) 1. XDI Datatype definitions 2. XDI Link Contracts 1. Contract Classes 2. Policy 3.
