Overview

RP Enablement is a family of components that are used to create Relying Party sites. Separate sub-Components in this category have been and will be created to act as Relying Party Agents for different protocol (and/or interaction type) families.

For example the RSS-SSE RP Test App Component is used to test interactions between it and the Higgins Browser Extension.




As of the Higgins 07.04.30 f2f, Higgins will deliver a Relying Party Layer (RPL). The initial focus of RPL will be on defining the requirements for the support and evaluating which open source initiatives may have some complementary technologies/solutions that may be relevant. RPL will provide cross browser and protocol support, while preparing for unknown future protocols. To assure that the Identity Metasystem and the Higgins architecture is successful, it is imperative that RPL usage be as easy as possible.

    3. Opera
  3. Develop set of utilities/libraries to assist in RP creation
    1. library type ?
      1. javascript/ecmascript
      2. vbscript/aspx
      3. java classes
      4. c# classes
    2. Generation of Identity Agent Trigger mechanism <object ...

    4. Generation of Privacy Statement for IdA retrieval
    5. IdA Response Token validation
    6. IdA Response Token disassembly
    7. IdA Response Token claim data accessibility
    8. Token PPID validation ( to IdP )
    9. Token timestamp validation
    10. Generic keystore for RP Cert retrieval
    11. WebServer Platforms
