Draft Business Agreements

The specifications assume existing trust relationships between members in a circle of trust. This trust is defined through business arrangements or contracts that describe the technical, operational, and legal responsibilities of each party and the consequences for not completing them. When defined, a Liberty trust relationship means that one organization trusts another’s user authentication decisions. That trust among members enables a user to log in at one site and access another site as well. Ensure that these agreements are in force before going live with a Liberty-compliant system including configured authentication domains.
