+3.16 Elevating Subscriber IALs

3.16 Elevating Subscriber IALs

CSPs SHOULD allow subscribers to elevate IALs related to their subscriber accounts to support higher assurance transactions with RPs. For CSPs that support these functions, the following requirements apply:

CSPs SHALL document their approved approaches for elevating assurance levels in their practice statements.
CSPs SHALL require subscribers to authenticate at the highest authentication assurance level (AAL) available on their account prior to initiating the upgrade process.
CSPs SHALL collect, validate, and verify additional evidence, as mandated to achieve the higher IAL.
CSPs SHOULD avoid collecting, validating, and verifying previously processed evidence, though they MAY do so based on an extended period of account inactivity, indicators of fraud, or if evidence has become invalidated since the original proofing event.

This is often called “data washing” and typically occurs when an attacker manipulates or cleans up stolen attribute information to make it appear legitimate by removing inconsistencies or red flags that might trigger fraud detection systems. Data washing can be prevented through a number of methods, depending on the interfaces deployed by a CSP. As such, these guidelines do not dictate specific mechanisms to prevent this practice. ↩

[NISTIR8062] provides an overview of predictability, manageability, and disassociability, including examples of how these objectives can be met. ↩

Behavioral analytics in this context are used to determine whether an interaction is indicative of an automated attack and not an effort to identify or authenticate a specific user based on a captured reference template for that user. ↩

For the purposes of this document, the DFAR is the proportion of processed, fraudulent documents that the document validation system determined to be valid divided by the number of processed fraudulent documents. ↩

For the purposes of this document, DFRR is the proportion of processed, genuine documents that the document validation system determined to be invalid divided by the number of processed genuine documents. ↩
