[security-jc] Latest carter statement for approval via email vote

[Darran Rolls <Darran.Rolls@waveset.com>]

Below is the latest draft of the charter statement that includes the discussion from today’s con-call.   As I understand it, we are operating an email vote to accept this text.  One vote per member TC should be forwarded to the chair phil.griffin@asn-1.com before close of business 9/02/2002.

 

 

To promote the use of consistent terms

 

·        Through consultation with, and the participation of member TC's, to encourage new and developing TC's to use consistent security terms and definitions in specification documentation.

 

To promote re-use

 

·        To provide the definition and identification of re-usable security related specification elements.  Security related specification elements are defined as (but are not limited to) object models, use cases, extensible XML elements, cryptographic processes and deployment profiles.

                                                                                                            

To champion an OASIS security standards model

 

·        To champion the creation of a reference model that shows how OASIS security TC specifications are inter-related.  This reference model shall define how OASIS security related specifications "fit together" and relate to other security relevant works at W3C, IETF, WS-I, X.509 etc.

 

To provide consistent PR

 

·        To provide a single point of contact for addressing security related enquiries at OASIS and in doing so to help organize and coordinate security related comment and PR from OASIS.

 

To promote mutuality, operational independence & ethics

 

·        The SJC will foster and maintain respect among OASIS security TCs and for them in the security community at large. The SJC will maintain a vendor neutral and vendor agnostic view in its support for diverse security technologies.

·        The SJC will promote public safeguards and believes that security technologies should be used solely for legal, ethical, and nondiscriminatory purposes. The joint committee is committed to the highest standards of systems integrity and data security in order to deter identity theft, protect personal privacy, and ensure equal rights in all security applications.
