Subject: Re: [security-services] Re: [iaeg] FYI:SP 800-63 Rev. 1


this line would appear to mandate use of SAML Authn Context (or an equivalent attribute-based mechanism)

"All assertions recognized within this guideline must indicate the assurance level of the initial authentication of the Subscriber."

SP 800-63 Rev. 1

DRAFT Electronic Authentication Guideline

Draft SP 800-63 Revision 1: E-Authentication Guideline is available for a 
second public comment period. It supplements OMB guidance, by providing 
technical guidelines for the design of electronic systems for the remote 
authentication of citizens by government agencies. The revision represents an 
expansion and reorganization of the original document, broadening the 
discussion of technologies available to agencies, and giving a more detailed 
discussion of assertion technologies. Changes intended to clarify the 
pre-existing requirements are also included in the revision. The bulk of the 
changes since the previously posted draft of SP 800-63-1 concern assertion 
technologies and Kerberos. Comments will be accepted until January 30, 2009. 
Comments should be forwarded via email to eauth-comments@nist.gov.
