2 CAMP Integration Middleware Makes the Global Sharing of Resources Invisible to Users.

3 CAMP Integration 3 Increasingly, people must easily and securely exchange information in cyberspace among "known" individuals and to securely access restricted resources they “know” can be trusted without having to struggle with numerous and onerous security processes.

4 CAMP Integration 4 How do you prove you are who you say you are? How do you know that someone is legitimate in his or her dealings with you, and how do you get redress if things go wrong? If your identity is stolen and used fraudulently, or personal records are altered without your knowledge or permission, how do you prove that it was not you? It is difficult enough to verify someone's identity in the tangible world where forgery, impersonation and credit card fraud are everyday problems related to authentication. Such problems take on a new dimension with the movement from face-to-face interaction, to the faceless interaction of cyberspace. Identity and Authentication by Simon Rogerson

5 CAMP Integration 5 Ideally, individuals would each like a single digital credential that can be securely used to authenticate his or her identity anytime authentication of identity is required to secure any transaction.

6 CAMP Integration 6 UTHSC-H: An Identity Provider (IdP) It is critical to recognize that the university functions as an identity provider (IdP) in that UTHSC-H provides individuals with digital credentials that consist of an identifier and an authenticator. As an IdP, the university assumes specific responsibilities and liabilities.

7 CAMP Integration 7 Two Categories of Identity Physical Identity – Assigned Identifier - Authentication –Facial picture, –Fingerprints –DNA sample Identity Attributes – Authorization Attributes –Common name, –Address, –Institutional affiliations - e.g. faculty, student, staff, contractor, –Specific group memberships, –Roles, –Etc.

8 CAMP Integration 8 Issuing a Digital Credential Individual appears before an Identity Provider (IdP) which accepts the responsibility to –positively determine and catalog a person's uniquely identifying physical characteristics (e.g. picture, two fingerprints, DNA sample), –assign a unique, everlasting digital identifier to each person identified, –issue each identified person a digital credential that can only be used by that person to authenticate his or her identity, –maintain a defined affiliation with each individual whereby the validity of the digital credential is renewed at specified intervals.

10 CAMP Integration 10 The University of Texas System STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP COUNCIL Statement of Direction Identity Management April 27, 2004 The University of Texas System Information Technology Strategic Leadership Council agrees that deployment of a robust, secure, interoperable infrastructure for identity management in support of inter-institutional collaboration is a strategic goal. This infrastructure will be based upon the available standards and best practices:

11 CAMP Integration 11 The University of Texas System STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP COUNCIL Statement of Direction Identity Management April 27, 2004 LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) compliant directory services, eduperson schema as promulgated by EDUCAUSE and Internet2, utperson schema (to be developed) inter-institutional access control utilizing Internet2 Shibboleth, and consistent institutional definitions and identity management trust policies for students, faculty, and staff as well as sponsored affiliates.

13 CAMP Integration 13 Person Registry Identity Reconciliation –Unique Identifiers Generated by Source of Record SSN – If Available (HRMS, GMEIS, UTP, Guest, SIS) Student ID, Employee Number - HRMS –Full Name First, Middle, Last –Birth Information Date of Birth, City of Birth, Country of Birth –Gender UUID – An everlasting unique identifier

14 CAMP Integration 14 Person Is New ? Is Single Match ? Is Possible Or Multiple Match ? Add Update Manual Processing No matches or possible matches Identifiers match one and only one person No possible matches Identifiers match more than one person And / or Name or Birth information match one or more persons yes no yes no
