Attribute Consent

CAS provides the ability to enforce user-informed consent upon attribute release. Practically, this means that prior to accessing the target application, the user will be presented with a collection of attributes allowed to be released to the application with options to either proceed or deny the release of said attributes. There are also additional options to indicate how should underlying changes in the attribute release policy be considered by the consent engine. Users are also provided the ability to set up reminders in the event that no change is detected in the attribute release policy.

Consent attribute records stored in the configured repository are signed and encrypted.

Support is enabled by including the following module in the WAR Overlay:

Configuration

The following settings and properties are available from the CAS configuration catalog:

The configuration settings listed below are tagged as Required in the CAS configuration metadata. This flag indicates that the presence of the setting may be needed to activate or affect the behavior of the CAS feature and generally should be reviewed, possibly owned and adjusted. If the setting is assigned a default value, you do not need to strictly put the setting in your copy of the configuration, but should review it nonetheless to make sure it matches your deployment expectations.
