Enhanced Authentication Profile (EAP) Working Group



What is the EAP Working Group?

Working Group Name:

Enhanced Authentication Profile (EAP)

Overview

The purpose of this working group is to develop a security and privacy profile of the OpenID Connect specifications that enable users to authenticate to OpenID Providers using strong authentication specifications. The resulting profile will enable use of IETF Token Binding specifications with OpenID Connect and integration with FIDO relying parties and/or other strong authentication technologies.

List of Specifications

Below are links to the HTML versions of the released copies of the specifications:

  • Token Bound Authentication – (Optional) Defines how to apply Token Binding to OpenID Connect ID Tokens
  • EAP ACR Values – (Optional) Enables OpenID Connect RPs to request that specific authentication context classes be applied to authentications performed and for OPs to inform RPs whether these requests were satisfied

Working copies of the specification can be found in the group’s repository.
