| Packages upgrades for a New Delhi | New scans iteration for packages upgrades available on the restricted Wiki, but due to instability of Nexus-IQ, all the CLM jobs were failing. Amy has opened ticket: IT-26799 CLM Jenkins Jobs Failing Progress - not all jobs are failing. Pawel's access to CLM reports was lost - Jira was opened for that: https://jira.linuxfoundation.org/plugins/servlet/desk/portal/2/IT-26825 and IT-26810. Following the discussion at the last TSC Andreas confirmed that his tests are not failing. Update received from Kevin on reasons CLM jobs are failing:
| fixed | ||

Discussion will be followed at the OOM meeting on Wednesday. RBAC changes could be provided: Improvement for NewDelhi Release Root access for container need was explained.
Further update will be discussed during Oslo. | |||
| GitHub Actions integration pipeline | LF IT migrating CI pipeline to GitHub actions - may take to the end of fall or later, once ONAP is completed for GitHub Actions , we will do security review. Last update from Matt is that LF IT is continuously shipping one project at a time. 4/2: in progress At the TSC Jess mentionned Q4'24? | open - WIP | ||
| LFN AI/ML use cases | Muddasar Ahmed presented the draft deck about LFN AI/ML use cases. Maggie shared link: https://www.nist.gov/itl/ai-risk-management-framework We need to have Ops feedback (NOC manager) on AI, what pain point could be solved by AI. Deck shared with Marian from Orange, feedback expected in first week of December. Under WG 11 in ORAN Alliance (doing standards for ORAN) - threat analysis will be done in the domain of AI security - OWASP TOP 10 - planned by March'24. Runtime influence under interest. Maggie shared the link: https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2023/11/26/cisa-and-uk-ncsc-unveil-joint-guidelines-secure-ai-system-development Feedback from Marian received to be discussed at the next SECCOM. China Mobile and Infosys would like to work on use cases. First call done yesterday, agreed on a model to move forward. Intent Based Mode would use Generative AI. 3 layers approach: business layer, services layer, domain layer. Each Intent Manager would have its own AI. Generic model would be used: business language into ONAP consumable, for services more data oriented and finally domain oriented. We do not focus on 5G only architecture but rather on any so could be used by any organization. Topic is in forming group. China Mobile and Infosys interested in Intent context. China Telecom is also interested with focused on user input and Intent. Muddasar Ahmed Byung-Woo Jun Maggie update China Telecom: New Delhi - data service. CCVPN use cases - LLM does not give enough intelligence. Develop domain specific model to generate more intelligent decisions. China Mobile & Infosys: Intent based networking - Level 3 autonomy. Infosys is consulting with MNOs and has experience developing small AI-based autonomous loops. New Delhi release: CM/Infosys will deliver LLM for Intent based networking. Intelligent decision making. Post New Delhi will evaluate if the two tracks can leverage each other. UUI is impacted system for both tracks. No impact to other components NSA/Georgia Tech: AI/ML for security. Collecting and tagging security data to correlate the data. Amy Zwarico provided reference to NIST AI 100-2e2023 Adversarial Machine Learning: A Taxonomy and Terminology of Attacks and Mitigations Call this week booked. AI/ML use cases focus group still works on platform and use cases priorities. CCVPN use case and intent based networking. China Mobile and Infosys starting work on that in more downstream. ORAN WG11 is working on security aspects. WG2 (non-real-time RIC) and WG3 (near-real-time RIC) are working on xApps and rApps (AI/ML capabilities). Need to write LF informative position white paper for AI/ML - team to write constituted. Meeting is planned with convenient time for all contributors. Goal is to produce it by DTF. Structure bulleted paper available on Confluence - https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=120652848 China Mobile focus: generative AI. (New Delhi UUI) China Telecom focus: intent transformation & LLM tuning parameters to create domain specific solutions. (New Delhi UUI) Both projects are in progress. Oslo lightweight model China Telecom and China Mobile presented at the last TSC their plans for AI/ML use cases with ONAP. | open - sceleton structure of the document | ||

SPIFFE in ORAN as study item. Workload identity still to be addressed. Last Tuesday, Shiv Bhagavatula (Nephio SIG Architecture) shared additional Workload Identity design, leveraging SPIFFE infrastructure (SPIRE server, SPIRE agent, SPIFFE Id and SVID…), https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1L79WrZ64Uar3IrH-jL_IeQTlPoLtXGZKHIIfVCXLoco/edit#slide=id.p.

Workload identity and access management in progress. Internal discussions in E/// for next steps for user identity and access management.
Nephio R3, there is an action point, secret management, "sharing secrets across clusters as Skupper generates a secret in one cluster/namespace and that secret has to be shared with another cluster/namespace. To create the tunnel for communication. Now the question is how to share the secrets" It is a narrowed scope of sharing secretes between particular services, which is different from what Nephio SIG Security proposed. Byung-Woo Jun , The Nephio SIG Security team (Shiv from Accuknox) plans to provide a demo of workload identity with SPIFFE this or next week. I will share the detail after their demo. LF IT support is needed for SBOM SPDX format generation. Jess has experience with java based projects, and Nephio is Go based. Byung-Woo Jun , Nephio O-RAN Workload Identity proposal by Nephio SIG Security will be presented to Nephio WG 2 ORAN on May 29th (postponed to June 5the), https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1kofOHWswM2_OJPfefTcSzVvsBAg0QE3Z7GQITlaPO2w/edit#slide=id.p Nephio Workload Identity execution plan:
