UCTrust Report
UCTrust Initiatives UCTrust Services
Standardization of attributes Attribute request release process
InCommon Silver replacing UCTrust Basic UCTrust audit completed at UCSB Audit requires clearer UCTrust requirements & framework
Mapping UCPath attributes for UCTrust federation Many UCPath IDM participants during 2012-2014 were
UCTrust representatives
UCTrust Accomplishments In cooperation with InCommon, developed a
technical process to support central attribute release approval Meeting scheduled with Registrars group to discuss
student attribute release practice, December 2014 Developed a mapping of UCPath attributes
to SAML attributes used in federation
UCTrust Change in Focus InCommon Silver largely deprioritized
Many campuses felt they had insufficient resources to achieve it
ITLC encourages the UC Trust workgroup to consider other actions that would not place undue burden on the campuses
Collaboration with UCITPS and others is encouraged. The standards being defined as part of the EA process
support this (ITLC) charge. Discuss UCPath-related identity management issues
UCTrust Goals 2014-2015 Governance for Service Provider Integration with
UCTrust (link) UCTrust Services and Attribute Release Process
Develop and deploy a central release approval process for a single, pre-defined set of user attributes to be used with the process developed with InCommon
