...
This will result in a report for Steering, and will also be shared with key registrars in the AACRAO community to determine next steps. The purpose of this first step is discovering what people do; not promoting any particular policy.
InCommon Path Forward
Kevin provided background on the “deep dive” and “path forward” meetings which will wrap up this month.

Proposed Change - Federation Operation Policies and Practices (FOPP)
Steve Carmody brought forward a proposal from the InCommon TAC for a change in section 10.3.1 of the FOPP, giving InCommon management the authority and scope to act when the security of Federation services or the trustworthiness of the published metadata file might be impacted. One concern is with the large number (about 70%) of identity provider providers still operating Shibboleth IdPv2, which goes end of life on July 31, 2016. After that time, there will be no security updates. While there have been no problems to date, it seems prudent to be prepared.

Michael Gettes moves moved and Melissa Woo seconded approving the proposed change to the second paragraph of section 10.3.1 of the FOPP. The motion passed unanimously. The second paragraph of Section 10.3.1 now reads: If InCommon suspects any compromise or negligence on the part of a Participant, it will make reasonable efforts to contact Participant to resolve the issue. In the case of a significant security incident that poses an unacceptable risk to InCommon or other federation participants, InCommon may take immediate remediation actions commensurate with the impact of the incident. |
(AI) Ann West will distribute a proposed resolution for the development of the InCommon Incident Response Policy and Procedures and Reporting Document, distribute that by email to InCommon Steering, for a vote via Wisegate.
