Re: [higgins-dev] Higgins v1 bug status - Parity assignment summary

Really, #211945 concerns only JNDI CP implementation, but we proposed to make changes to IdAS interfaces. The main proposals are:

 

1. separate user data from IdAS data (from user account data like username/password, PPID hash etc.);

2. add some methods to IdAS (more likely to IContext) to be able to manage user accounts;

3. (optional) simplify/standardize user credentials management.

 

Now the same digital subject contains as user data attributes (profile data, for example) as " #cardKeyHash" (contains PPID hash and is used for authentication with self-signed card) attribute. We think we need to have some "user account" stucture (IUserAccount in my proposal), which will contain authentication materials of user. May be it can be DigitalSubject instance, if Jim will insist on this, but there should be some conditions/rules for such stucture (one instance per user account, some default attributes like username/password/ppid hash, etc.).

 

Thanks,
Sergey Lyakhov

This 211945 is, I believe, the resolution to the thread started by SergeyL. Please comment on 211945 and whether or not you can/could/should fix it?

 

 

Sergey,

 

Please confirm what I’ve written above.
