“Identity” consists of a “set” of information based on context, allied with a definite entity (End User or System). Identity Management should include: Identity Provisioning, De-Provisioning, Identity Information Security, Identity Linking, Identity Mapping, Identity Federation, Identity Attributes Federation, Single Sign On, Authentication and Authorization.
With the adoption of cloud services, the organization’s trust boundary has become dynamic. It has moved beyond the control of IT. Identity & Access Management is a critical requirement considering data sensitivity and privacy of information have become increasingly an area of concern in cloud.
