Significant work remains to be done in transition to FAPI 2.0

The document provides clear signal that CDR is in alignment with FAPI.

Australia went live with Open Banking with just read only.

4.3.   Brazil (Mike)

  • Central bank is considering moving the deadline from Aug. 30 to a later date.

  • Waiting for feedback from Central Bank via Mirow on updated milestones
  • RP community group pilot is being set up to encourage RP certifications by providing RP knowledge base for FAPI certification.
  • Filip S will join the group to provide expertise.
  • Chris: Banking certification should go first, then RPs.
  • Banks having a hard time understanding what needs to be done between CG, Mirow, and OIDF with hard dependencies.

  • Only banks are allowed on the directory makes it a challenge for smaller banks to test.
  • But regulators are listening and allowing more time.
  • 18 ph.3 banks
  • Gail banks and implementation partners are under unrealistic expectations. A breakout group to share best practices under change management etc. would be valuable.

6.   Issues (Dave/Nat)

6.1.   #432 – FAPI2 Trust Framework structure

https://bitbucket.org/openid/fapi/issues/432/fapi2-trust-framework-structure

FAPI 2.0 will remain a security profile but will have interoperable way to do advanced authorization

Grant Management and RAR will become optional separate specs to create a framework of specifications (Attacker model, implementation advice, etc…)

Work on Advanced Authorization profile will use RAR and Grant Management

Will leave issue open for visibility

6.3.   #426 – FAPI 2 - Multiple audience values in client authentication assertions

Concerns against the proposal were expressed by multiple participants.

From a security perspective, there aren’t any reasons to have multiple audience values in a client authentication assertion.

Limiting it to a single value might cause more problems due to ambiguity on what the proper audience is. This might hurt interoperability.

Does a single audience require it to be a single string value versus a single element array?

Audience is an OR statement so requiring the receiver to understand all audience values will affect general purpose libraries interoperability.

7.   AOB (Dave/Nat)

The call adjourned at 15:__ UTC
