Activity overview
Panel |
---|
|
Many research collaborations as well as campus services need a solution to deal with guest identity, as in many cases not all users are members of the academic Identity Federations.
In several cases these users are working for a commercial company that has a relation with the research community of or the campus. Rather then force these users to use e.g. social accounts to authenticate for academic servicesaccounts, or have accounts created locally, this project activity investigates if and how the exiting existing IdM within the companies they work for may be used as external IdPs. |

This activity should investigate technical, legal and business case aspects and report on these. If so appropriate a technical pilot could be conducted. |

One angle to invistigate investigate here is a possible collaboration with commertial commercial providers of hosted proxy solutions like e.g. Ping Identity and OKTA to investigate of discuss if we can connect to their proxies for shared benefit for to our and their customers This pilot aims to bring such Identity Providers into the IDhub solution, with formal support from the vendors. It also investigates the (technical) improvements needed to better scale the IDhub solution and will begin a dialog with the service activities to make the pilot move towards a full service offering under the GEANT umbrella. |

Enabling company IDs to be used in the context of R&E would:
- support public - private collaboration which is core to scientific collaborations.
- allow institutions to more easily offer courses to corporate
- would make corporate IdP users first class citizens;
- would potentially improve LoA of guest login;
- would enhance eduGAIN as the source of federated identity in R&E
