+ SciTokens provide a token format for distributed authorization. The tokens are
+ self-describing, can be verified in a distributed fashion (no need to contact
+ the issuer to determine if the token is valid). This is convenient for a
+ federated environment where several otherwise-independent storage endpoints
+ want to delegate trust for an issuer for managing a storage allocation.
