Draft Plan for 2022

A discussion about the year’s agendas was conducted.

Ann explained that when you join eduroam you can get one idP for eduroam . But if you are a company you would use hotspots but not access to eduroam. Underscoring the outreach we do have organizations that leave because they don't know how to support the federation or they join for a reason and that reason evaporates. We need to make the federations easier to support and stickier. 

Von noted that there is a lot of discussion in the beltway right now around "research security." While cyber is only a small component of this, there is a push out of the WH for digital identifiers for researchers [1]. Is there an opportunity for InC here? ([1] See last section ofhttps://www.aip.org/fyi/2022/white-house-clarifies-disclosure-requirements-rd-funding )

Results of the marketing interview's that were done last year will be reviewed at a later date.  Updates to come on the catalyst program and Trusted Access Platform, efforts around Identity as a service 

Chris Misra brought up that the CSP program could produce an opportunity if it becomes a driver to taking folks from one level to another,  it is relevant to continuing to build and sustain the market even if it is in different portfolios or stovepipes.
