The AARC CTA pilot system  has been succesfully tested by the CTA AAI experts which have been able to succesfully authenticate and get authorized on specific CTA service providers.

The designed workflow, supported by the SaToSa proxy and its implemented microservices, has proven to work and be reliable, supporting the desired authentication and authorization processes.

The main benefits for the CTA community can be summarized as follows:

•  Succesfully exploited an architecture capable of onboarding the whole CTA community to the eduGAIN trust model and flows.

• Include COmanage and Grouper as community tools to support attribute management and highly grained authorization processes
• Succesfully integrating legacy and new Service Providers of interest for the CTA community
• Generation of the required ePUID as a unique, reliable identifier for the CTA users
• Linking of identities between already existing CTA IDs and eduGAIN identitfiers

All the orginal goals of the pilot have been reached.

In a following phase,  social and eGov identities could be included via Identity Hub.
