Security - Security Working Group

Working Group Description

Security is an important consideration in deploying a management solution utilizing the DMTF’s WBEM technologies and management initiatives.

The DMTF’s Security Working Group focuses on the model and related profiles that provide the standard interfaces necessary for the configuration and management of the security aspects of an implementation, including authentication, authorization, and auditing services.

Get Involved

  • As of Q2 2016, the DMTF’s security work takes place in the CIM Profiles for Platform and Service (CPPS) Working Group. Please see below for historical files, and visit CPPS for the latest.
