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.
