| Popis: | 96 In recent years, many organizations start to deploy Identity and Access Management (IAM) or Federated Identity and Access Management (FIAM) systems to reduce the cost and security risks of using and managing different systems. While deploying the IAM or FIAM systems, organizations may usually meet difficulties in integrating legacy systems into IAM or FIAM systems. Current IAM solutions usually adopt the Web-based portal approach and require application system to support the Web-based architecture or HTTP protocol. In light of this, we propose the framework of extensible FEDerated identity and access management framework considering LegACY systems (FEDERACY). Compared to current Web-based approaches, FEDERACY adopts agent-based approach to provide a unified way for individuals to use heterogeneous legacy systems and for administrators to manage the legacy systems without modifying the systems. While the cost of integrating legacy systems to IAM systems can be reduced, FEDERACY can hopefully contribute to the realization of IAM systems. |
