Minutes
- John chaired.
- Unanimous approval of agenda and minutes.
- Discussed John"s blog article from the email discussion on Provenance vs Audit http://healthcaresecprivacy.blogspot.com/2016/03/provenance-vs-audit-it-is-not.html. Questions about which agent is generating a CREATE/UPDATE, since that's not the view of the user agent about the activity performed led to the conclusion that we need at least two interaction diagrams to shows:
- Provenance Interactions
- Generation of a Provenance Resource recording the user agent activity that caused the Provenance.target
- Possible linking of the user's Provenance Resource to a Resource that the user POSTS/PUTS on or TRANSFERS to a FHIR Server and possible persistence by the Server.
- Generation of a Provenance Resource recording the Server's CREATE/UPDATE
- AuditEvent Interactions
- Generation of AuditEvent Resource recording the actions on the system triggered by the user agent and facilitating agent activities [e.g., user authenticating, system handshakes required for transfers, etc.]
- Generation of AuditEvent Resource recording the actions by the Server.
- Provenance Interactions
John will make draft for discussion on next call.
- RE: Security CP 9563Add onBehalfOf to Signature datatype
- “onBehalfOf" definition of " = Agent who delegated signing or did not have the legal standing to sign for themselves (such as a child) e.g., a party to a contract, consent directive, witness, attester, etc.
- Add "onBehalfOfReference" definition: The delegator for which the “who” Reference, e.g., a Device, signed on behalf of. The delegator can only be a Referenced Resource type in the context in which the signature is used. E.g., in a contract, where a signing party must have legal standing, by limiting Referenced resources to Organizational or Person like Resources, may be enough of a constraint to prevent a device being the delegator to another device and thereby a signer which must have legal standing.
- NOTE that W3C PROV Namespace has a description for "actedOnBehalfOf" = "Delegation is the assignment of authority and responsibility to an agent (by itself or by another agent) to carry out a specific activity as a delegate or representative, while the agent it acts on behalf of retains some responsibility for the outcome of the delegated work.
- Alternative approaches were discussed, including using XADES delegation and countersigning capabilities.
- Rob suggested using the UCC term "personal representative" vs the W3C PROV term "onBehalfOf".
- Homework: To review XADES and HL7 Digital Signature CDA IG for alternative approaches, and to consider alternatives to "onBehalfOf" as well as a definition that covers more than the delegation use case.
- Deferred discussion of Security CP 9407 - aligned AuditEvent.activity and Provenance.activity.
