The same shared PPI SHALL be used for a specific set of RPs if all of the following criteria are met:
• The trust agreement stipulates a shared PPI for a specific set of RPs.
• The authorized party consents to and is notified of the use of a shared PPI.
• Those RPs have a demonstrable relationship that justifies an operational need for the correlation, such as a shared security domain or shared legal ownership.
• All RPs in the set of a shared PPI consent to being correlated in such a manner (i.e., one RP cannot request to have another RP’s PPI without that other RP’s knowledge and consent).
The RPs SHALL conduct a privacy risk assessment to consider the privacy risks associated with requesting a shared PPI. See Sec. 7.2 for further privacy considerations.
The IdP SHALL ensure that only intended RPs are included in the set. Otherwise, a rogue RP could learn the shared PPI for a set of RPs by fraudulently posing as part of that set.
The sector identifier feature of [OIDC] provides a mechanism to calculate a shared PPI for a group of RPs. In this protocol, the identifiers of the RPs are all listed at a URL that can be fetched by the IdP over an authenticated protected channel. The shared PPI is calculated by considering the sector identifier URL along with other inputs to the algorithm such that all RPs listed in the sector identifier URL’s contents receive the same shared PPI.
