It is our ambition to let SURFsecureID grow into the default strong authentication solution for Dutch education and research institutions. The following activities are planned:
- Enable Single Sign-On (SSO) on second factor
Planned for 2023H2 - User deprovisioning, i.e. remove token registrations that have not been used for a long time
Planned for 2024H1 - Redesign SURFsecureID UI
Planned for 2024Q1
In addition to these more innovative activities, we will continue to improve our service:
- Functional improvement of Registration portal, RA Management portal, supporting processes and documentation
- Infrastructure and management improvements
- Grow the number of connected Identity Providers and Service Providers
- Best practices on SURFsecureID implementations
- Knowledge dissemination on strong authentication, Levels of Assurance, etc.
- Periodic security audit
Activities and priorities in this road map may change over time depending on input of our members. We encourage you to engage in our periodic SURFconext meetings or contact us at info@surfconext.nl to discuss your strong authentication needs.
