Identity attributes that represent the subscriber are sent to the RP during a federation transaction. These attributes take on multiple aspects that can be combined in different ways. Bundling: Attributes SHALL be either unbundled (i.e., presented directly in an assertion by the IdP) or bundled into a package that is cryptographically signed by the CSP, as described in Sec. 3.12.1 .
Derivation: Attributes SHALL be either attribute values (e.g., a date of birth) or derived attribute values (e.g., an indication of age of majority).
Presentation: Attributes SHALL be either presented in the assertion and covered by the assertion’s signature or be made available as part of a protected identity API.
Trust agreements SHALL point to the CSP’s practice statements that describe the processes and sources used for attribute validation.
