XACML and the Externalization of Authorization: How to do it Right

This training will give an overview about XACML and the concepts behind, from the way policies are expressed to the different components like PEPs, PDPs, or PAPs. It also will look at the shortcomings XACML currently has and how to best deal with them. It will look at different approaches in which XACML currently is used, showing the breadth and potential limitations of XACML. And it will discuss where to better not use XACML itself but to “translate” things.
