Authentication and Authorisation for Research Collaboration Technical Revision to Enhance Effectiveness - AARC TREE
Collaboration and sharing of resources is critical for research. Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructures (AAIs) play a key role in enabling federated interoperable access to resources.
The AARC Technical Revision to Enhance Effectiveness (AARC TREE) project takes the successful and globally recognised “Authentication and Authorisation for Research Collaboration” (AARC) model and its flagship outcome, the AARC Blueprint Architecture (BPA), as the basis to drive the next phase of integration for research infrastructures: expand federated access management to integrate user-centring technologies, expand access to federated data and services (authorisation), consolidating existing capacities and avoiding fragmentation and unnecessary duplication.
SCCs participates in AARC-TREE to continue developing the Blueprint Architectures. Here we contribute to technical recommendations, as well as to policy development. Since SCC is also a core member of the IAM project of the german NFDI, we can raise the awareness of NFDI requirements in AARC, as well as feed new developments back to NFDI, in a very timely manner.
