Scalable Privacy: An NSTIC Pilot for the Identity Ecosystem
Attribute Registries, Bundles and Application Categories
A Note on Terminology
On these pages we will often group applications into application categories. It will sometimes be useful to group attributes into various attribute bundles based on their common applicability to a set of use cases. A given attribute bundle may be associated with a particular application category when the attributes in that bundle are generally required or useful for the operation of applications in that category.
- A first-cut, extremely rough and rudimentary browsable Multi-Schema Attribute Registry is under development as part of this project. The information is also available in the form of a spreadsheet and a Protégé ontology project.

- R&S Category Bundle from InCommon
- SWAMID Entity Categories
- GPII (see ISO/IEC 24751 parts 1-3, at http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/index.html for their unbundled list)
On the power of the notion of context in assessing privacy dimensions of online scenarios
- Reading Notes on Helen Nissenbaum's Privacy in Context: Technology, Policy, and the Integrity of Social Life
- See Andrew Cormack's reflections on how this approach does and doesn't help us in the federated identity and access management contexts
