InCommon Silver Integration

InCommon's assurance program, and in particular InCommon Silver, providing an opportunity for aligning UCTrust Basic assurance with the rest of InCommon. This alignment will have the following benefits:

• Interoperability with other InCommon participants when identity assurance at LoA 2 is required.
• Efficiency and cost saving by having a single assessment process for both UCTrust Basic and InCommon Silver.

The information collected here are internal work products of this project.

Overall Approach

1. In March of 2010, the UCTrust Work Group and the UC IT Policy and Security (UCITPS) proposed that the ITLC defer the UCTrust Basic requirement for periodic audits until an assessment of InCommon Silver could be made to determine its applicability to UCTrust Basic.
