Title: Binding Assertions should support Operation subjects

 

Description:

 

Appendix A states that Binding Assertions can only have Endpoint for their subject, or scope. I believe that Operation should also be allowed for the AsymmetricBindingAssertion and SymmetricBindingAssertion. We have seen situations where customers have defined different security around operations of a service, especially when building aggregate services. The constructs of the AsymmetricBindingAssertion in particular would be useful when defining security around these operations.

 

Related issues: None.

Proposed Resolution:

Add AsymmetricBindingAssertion and SymmetricBindingAssertion to section A.2.
