Telefonica Telefonica Telefonica This document defines mechanisms and conventions for the representation and sharing of authorization policies in distributed and automated environments. It specifies the foundational elements required to express policies in a consistent, machine-readable, and interoperable manner, enabling fine-grained control and context-aware evaluation. The framework supports the complete policy lifecycle, including creation, validation, versioning, distribution, and decommissioning, with YANG serving as the canonical representation format. It also establishes the relationship between policy representation and the structure of tokens used in enforcement and authorization exchanges, ensuring coherent and dynamic policy evaluation across heterogeneous systems.
