e-Researcher-Centric Policies - develop the policy framework for communities, providing recommendations for baseline “policy profiles” for users, communities and identity providers, and, through such harmonisation, will reduce the “policy silos” that hinder interoperation. The policy profiles will be defined in close interaction with European and global stakeholders, specifically the e-infrastructures and research infrastructures, so that in the AAI ecosystem every participant is able to rely on well-defined predictable behaviour by the other participants in the infrastructure.
Inventory of high-assurance identity requirements from the AARC2 use cases
This document and the associated Wiki page provide an inventory of currently identified use-cases where there is a requirement that the identity of a user accessing data or using a system or an instrument is assured with higher confidence than provided by an identification consistent with the REFEDS Assurance Framework “Cappuccino” assurance profile.
Identified use-cases come from the life sciences domain, driven by legal restrictions on the processing of human personal data. Assurance requirements include the use of multi-factor authenticators and improved “freshness” of the user’s affiliation.

Acceptable Use Policy Development
AUP Alignment Study
...
Security for Collaborating Infrastructures Trust Framework says: "Each infrastructure has the following: ... An Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) addressing at least the following areas: defined acceptable and non-acceptable use, user registration, protection and use of authentication and authorisation credentials, data protection and privacy, disclaimers, liability and sanctions" (SCI Version 2 section 6). The AARC2 AUP alignment study aims to draft a common minimum, or 'baseline', AUP text to satisfy these requirements thereby facilitating rapid community infrastructure ‘bootstrap’, easing the trust of users across an infrastructure and providing a consistent and more understandable enrolment for users as users move between communities and project. More information can be found at the links below.
