The Auth system is based around Fedora as the Authorization provider. Object policies are expressed in Fedora in XACML. There is meant to be a number of Authentication providers. The auth system is layered. Authentication happens on the outer layer, against whatever Authentication providers we link with. The trusted services on the outer layer establishes the users roles/attributes. These are then communicated to Fedora, which evaluates them against the authorization policy.
