Increased assurance in research services through eID identity assertions has proven hard to obtain from home identity providers in the R&E sector. It is more readily available in the European government identity ecosystem, and we will provide an assessment of its applicability for users of research infrastructures dealing with sensitive data through the proxies in the revised AARC BPA model. Step-up to at least a substantial level could then be done at “home” through the user’s national eID scheme.
This document investigates capabilities for leveraging national eID for increased identity assurance for the benefit of research services.
