Subject: Re: [xacml] subject categories


Hi Mohammed,

I found this via Google: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/200208/doc00002.doc
In it it says:

If 200208 relates to the year and month, this is a pretty early document. Perhaps some of the veterans on the list can add comments?

Hello,

 

As we are trying to update the XSPA XACML profiles, one of the tasks is to support XACML version 3. I noticed that for “subject” attributes, there are now 4 different categories defined in the core. The mandatory category:

urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:subject-category:access-subject

and the optional categories:

urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:subject-category:recipient-subject

urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:subject-category:intermediary-subject

urn:oasis:names:tc:xacml:1.0:subject-category:requesting-machine

 

But the core does not provide any definition or discussion about the differences between these categories. I was wondering if anyone can comment about the differences or refer me to a definition so that we can make a better decision on which category to use for which attributes.

 

Thanks.

 

Regards,

Mohammad
