EOSC Portal AAI guide for SPs

Overview

This wiki page contains information about connecting services to the EOSC Portal AAI service in order to allow user authentication using the academic/social account of choice, including eduGAIN and Research Community AAIs.

Services eligible for integration

EGI Operations, as owner of the EOSC Portal AAI service, must approve every request for integration of new services with the EOSC Portal AAI. The approval (or non-approval) will be based on some pre-requisites, the relevance of the service for the EOSC Portal and the available resources to support the integration. The pre-requisites are described in the following sections.

EGI at any time can prevent a service provider to access the Check-in service

To assert compliance, the organisation needs to fill in the registration form for SPs. A PDF scan of a printed and signed copy should be sent to operations (at) egi.eu.

By accepting the policies a service provider assures that they will operate the service in good faith, without deliberately exposing the user to security risks, without claiming intellectual property on the data owned by the user, and protecting sensitive data generated by the interaction of the user with the service.

The policies that the service provider will have to accept are available in this page EGI Policies and procedures page and specifically are:

1. e-Infrastructure Security Policy
2. Service Operations Security Policy
3. Traceability and Logging Policy
4. Security Incident Response Policy
5. Policy on the Processing of Personal Data

Service Provider integration workflow

To integrate your Service Provider with the EOSC Portal AAI service, you need to submit a GGUS ticket indicating your request. The responsible support unit is Check-in (AAI).
