NIST SP 800-210 General Access Control Guidance for Cloud Systems 5.7: Enforce authorisation without disclosing sensitive access control data to the SaaS provider

What does 5.7 require?

Because provider-side policy configuration forces policies to be stored and evaluated at the provider, exposing the sensitive data needed to evaluate them, methods such as federated authorisation are considered: a middleware layer that shifts policy management to the consumer and enforces policies on the SaaS application without the provider seeing the sensitive attributes, centralising consumer policy management and lowering the trust required in the provider.
