Thanks, Bill
Reading standards is soooo much fun. To get a glimpse of where
these fit together, I recommend:

Subject: [energyinterop] Relevant OASIS TC work on security
This is a brief list of links for OASIS work on fine-grained
security that is relevant to the Energy Interoperation TC. This closes action
item 7.
As is common practice in OASIS, a security model (including policies) is
commonly done by a TC doing work such as that being done by the EITC; the
actual security implementation is composed with, e.g., the interoperation
protocol.
This allows for clean substitution and evolution.
Key security standards and TCs:
The security-related TCs in OASIS are at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_cat.php?cat=security
with descriptions and links. There is a lot of work in key management,
access control, federation, and polity.
WS-Security (OASIS Standard) http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/#wssv1.1
produced by the Web Services Security TC (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=wss)
Profiles, and a toolkit from which to assemble secure applications.
SAML (Security Access Markup Language) (OASIS Standard) http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/#samlv2.0
produced by the Security Services TC (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=security)
This base standard is broadly adopted and used.
XACML (eXtensible Access Control Markup Language) (OASIS Standard) http://www.oasis-open.org/specs/#xacmlv2.0
produced by the XACML TC ( http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=xacml
). A markup language for defining access control.
