IEFRA2 — Strengths Sec 1.8

12.2 Strengths
Comprehensive List of Design Principles – The section clearly outlines key security, interoperability, and governance goals for IEF-RA. Emphasizes Open Standards & Vendor Neutrality – thru open standards (XACML, SAML, RuleML, IEPPV) and vendor-neutral specifications avoiding vendor lock-in and promoting interoperability.
I really like that it Includes Model-Driven & Model-Based Approaches – MDA and MBSE support ensuring IEF-RA integrates with formal engineering and architecture disciplines.
Strong Focus on Policy Separation & Lifecycle Management. VERY CRITICAL!
