(foldoc) | federation
The establishment of some or all of business
agreements, cryptographic trust and user identifiers or
attributes across security and policy domains to enable more
seamless business interaction.
As web services promise to enable integration between
business partners through loose coupling at the application
and messaging layer, federation does so at the identity
management layer, insulating each domain from the details of
the others' authentication and authorization. Key to this
loose coupling at the identity management layer are
standardized mechanisms and formats for the communication of
identity information between the domains. SAML is one such
standard.

federation against software theft limited
(foldoc) | Federation Against Software Theft Limited
(FAST) A non-profitmaking organisation, formed
in 1984 by the software industry with the aim of eradicating
software theft in the UK. FAST was the world's first
anti-piracy organisation to work to protect the intellectual
property rights of software publishers. Initially

FAST also prosecutes organisations and individuals for
software theft on behalf of its members and publicises the
legal penalties and security risks.
FAST Corporate Services Limited runs the FAST Standard for
Software Compliance (FSSC-1:2004). This was developed in
collaboration with the British Standards Institution as an
independent standard of excellence in software compliance.
In 1995 FAST proposed to merge with the {Business Software

influence. However, the talks fell through and in 1996,
Novell and Adobe Systems, Inc. defected to BSA.
