1. HSCN Supplier Workshop – 16 June 2016
Technical and Security Obligation Workstream
Presenters: Tony Beadle / Kate Gill / Michael Bowyer

2. Key changes / current working model for solution:
Feedback on V1.5 published; ongoing discussion over outstanding issues scheduled for all issues tracked and documented
HSCIC agreement for HSCN standards compliance being drafted for publication this week
Ability for suppliers to self assert, meeting good industry practice for network services, security and incident management.
Designed to help SMB vendors to become fully compliant with best industry standards over a two-year period
Supported with a program which is proposed to be run by Innopsis to help guide any HSCN supplier through the complete process.
Key outstanding areas:
IP addressing and Interconnectivity still outstanding pending agreements and discussion – papers in train for review
Security obligations being re-written in V2.0 to reflect supplier capabilities and agreements in previous workshop
Next Workstream workshop on 30 June primarily to close out Security questions

3. Key changes / current working model for solution:
Change of DLN’s and AC-SP’s to “Consumer Network Service Provider”
For AC-SP’s additional obligations (from V1.5) will apply as a result, as all providers will need to meet the set of obligations. 
Replacing DLN’s peering obligation with a Hybrid PSN / Peering Model
This will have certain Service Management obligations and capabilities which need to be met, being documented. 
This is the preferred method of interconnectivity for all Consumer Network Service Providers though we are not preventing providers obtaining connectivity to HSCN from another provider if this makes commercial sense for them.
Consumer Network Service Providers will need to identify from the Obligations in 2.0 which aspects they cannot meet (e.g. ISP provision with managed firewalls etc.) and seek wholesale arrangements with other providers who can

4. Key Interdependencies and Cross Over Areas
Service Management Data requirements to be met by supplier provided portal (or other)
Work in progress to identify what is required for Service Management and any impact on technical and security work stream
Hybrid PSN / Peering Model solution proposal
Will need to be impacted by Service Management Workstream for changes to their obligations
Commercial delivery vehicle will be determined by HSCIC and will impact Governance and Commercial Workstream
Requires changes to PSN compliance and governance which is agreed in principle by PSN team but will need to be formally documented
