Abstract
Our understanding of the architectures for campus authentication and authorization services is increasing as several leading-edge efforts bear fruit. WebISO activities, new basic authentication technologies, and credential converters are being fit together. In authorization, constructionist approaches that leverage registries, directories, and groups are being melded with external authorization languages and services. This session explores the boundaries and the gray areas between authentication and authorization and how they affect one another.
