Re: [xacml-comment] XACML standard
Hi Sagar,

    

    I feel bad that you had difficulty w the std.

    

    It is true that as a stand-alone document, it is pretty difficult

    for a beginner to get a good understanding of the motivation

    behind the standard, which is to standardize repreesentation

    of security policy for authorization and/or authentication.

    

    I would suggest using google to search for:

        xacml tutorial

    

    Some of these tutorials may provide the necessary context

    for being able to more effectively use the spec.

    

      Thanks,

      Rich Levinson

        Hi,

        

      

      

        This is the worst standard I have ever seen. There is literally
        no documentation available to get beginners to use it. The
        implementations listed on the website are all half-assed, and
        some are non existent. I can't believe how much time I wasted
        this semester trying to research into XACML, it ruined the grade
        for one of my classes. I hope I never have to use this useless
        standard ever again.

        

      

      

        Thanks for nothing,

      

      

        Sagar
