Thanks, Toby - good link.
On the broader issues of security and model, for EITC I think the
issues are
(1) Verifiable identity of sender of messages (grid integrity and
prices at least).
(2) Delegation of authority to receive and act on signals (for
aggregators, flexibility)
(3) Integrity of messages (all)
Others?
BTW, this addresses action item 14 - let's continue this discussion in
this thread.

Reading
standards is soooo much fun. To get a glimpse of where
these fit together, I recommend:

Subject: [energyinterop] Relevant OASIS TC work on security
This is a brief list of links for OASIS work on
fine-grained
security that is relevant to the Energy Interoperation TC. This closes
action
item 7.
As is common practice in OASIS, a security model (including policies)
is
commonly done by a TC doing work such as that being done by the EITC;
the
actual security implementation is composed with, e.g., the
interoperation
protocol.
This allows for clean substitution and evolution.
Key security standards and TCs:
The security-related TCs in OASIS are at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_cat.php?cat=security
with descriptions and links. There is a lot of work in key management,
access control, federation, and polity.
WS-Security (OASIS Standard) http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/#wssv1.1
produced by the Web Services Security TC (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=wss)
Profiles, and a toolkit from which to assemble secure applications.
SAML (Security Access Markup Language) (OASIS Standard) http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/#samlv2.0
produced by the Security Services TC (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=security)
This base standard is broadly adopted and used.
XACML (eXtensible Access Control Markup Language) (OASIS Standard) http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/#xacmlv2.0
produced by the XACML TC ( http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=xacml
). A markup language for defining access control.
