Description
Tracking user identity information is crucial in open research data (ORD) for data ownership, data providence, and authorization purposes. Thus, authentication and authorization play an essential role in various ORD services. Furthermore, a lack of compatibility in authentication and authorization was identified by EG-SI as a barrier to integration and interoperability between ORD services in the ETH domain. This document provides recommendations for ETH services and infrastructure regarding authentication technologies.
