[Openid-specs-ab] Attribute-Based Encryption for OpenID Connect?

[Giovanni Bartolomeo]

Dear AB/Connect WG,

this is Giovanni Bartolomeo, I'm a researcher working with CNIT  
(www.cnit.it) and I'm new to this community. Since last year I'm  
working on a slight variant of the OpenID Connect protocol with the  
goal to introduce token antiforgery and proof-of-possession directly  
in crypto by a technique known as "Attribute-Based Encryption" (ABE).

Currently, I've written a paper describing my research which is freely  
available here:

https://www.techrxiv.org/articles/preprint/Attribute-Based_Encryption_for_Access_Control_in_Cloud_Ecosystems/13546871

Also I've developed a reference implementation available on GitHub:

https://github.com/netgroup/abe4jwt

I'm looking for validation on real world implementation scenarios.  
Would you/your company be interested in any possible experimentation?

Note that, at the moment, the code is under Affero GPL (due to ABE  
specific implementation), but we can discuss this.

It would also be nice to discuss with this community whether any  
element of this research work could be integrated into the main  
standard.

Many thanks for your time.

Best Regards,
Giovanni
