1 What is the Liberty Alliance ? A business alliance, formed in Sept 2001, with the goal of establishing an open standard for federated identity management Global membership consists of consumer- facing companies and technology vendors as well as policy and government organizations tutorial_draft.pdf

2 Goals : – Provide open standard and business guidelines for federated identity management spanning all network devices – Provide open and secure standard for SSO with decentralized authentication and open authorization – Allow consumers/ businesses to maintain personal information more securely, and on their terms tutorial_draft.pdf

3 Open Interaction and Participation tutorial_draft.pdf

4 ID-FF Concepts  Simplified Sign-On (aka Single Sign-On) Allows a user to sign-on once at a Liberty enabled site and to be seamlessly signed-on when navigating to another Liberty-enabled site without the need to authenticate again.  Single Logout provides synchronized session logout functionality across all sessions that were authenticated by a particular identity provider. tutorial_draft.pdf

5 Key Concepts  Network Identity is the fusion of network security and authentication, user provisioning and customer management, single sign-on technologies and Web-services delivery.  Federated identity architecture delivers the benefit of simplified sign-on to users by granting rapid access to resources to which they have permission but does not require the user’s personal information to be stored centrally. tutorial_draft.pdf

6 Federated Identity Lifecycle tutorial_draft.pdf

7 Single Sign-on and Federation tutorial_draft.pdf

8 IdP-initiated Single Logout tutorial_draft.pdf

9 ID-WSF Concepts  Discovery Service enables various entities (e. g. Service Providers) to dynamically discover a Principle’s registered identity services.  Interaction Service protocols provide an identity service the means to obtain permission from a users.  Attribute Provider hosts a data service – such as ID- Personal Profile. tutorial_draft.pdf

10 The Complete Liberty Architecture

11 Interaction tutorial_draft.pdf

12 Business Guidelines  Federated Identity cannot be successful based on technology alone. Also required are: IT staff to manage and implement a set of specifications that cross several domains of expertise A clean directory Pre-existing agreements with others in a circle of trust  Detail major issues for federated identity interchange and trust relationships Examine risk and liability in identity interchange Identify success criteria for global and cross- company federation tutorial_draft.pdf

13 Business Guidelines

14 IBM/France Telecom Deployment  Create a single-sign-on network for France Telecom's 50 million cellular phone users  Subscribers can sign-on via mobile telephone or personal computer  Makes single-sign-on systems even more important, since logging into a network with a phone is much slower than using a PC's keyboard.  Applications that France Telecom hopes that it or its partners will supply include instant messaging, location-based services, games, online banking and e- mail

15 AOL/D-Link Deployment  AOL Broadband subscribers use D-Link's wireless media player to play music from the Radio@AOL service on home stereos.  The media player uses the Liberty protocols to access Radio@AOL on behalf of a user No need to login to AOL to use media player  AOL demonstrated the same service running over a Nokia handset at the 3GSM Conference this February

16 Japan’s EduMart Deployment  Part of the e- Japan Policy Priority Program  Spearheaded by the Strategic Headquarters for the Promotion of an Advanced Information and Telecommunications Network Society  Brings rich educational content to students at more than 40,000 schools Established an open interface Built an educational content distribution network that will lead to a system in which both public institutions and private businesses can connect to interfaces and freely participate.

17 County Land Document Recording Exchange  Deployment across Government and Industry Streamlines the land recordation process (thousands of counties and innumerable lenders/title companies each with separate systems and identities)  Establishes a strong foundation for an industry “Circle of Trust”

18 Product Support  NTT Software (available)  (2004)  PeopleSoft (available)  Phaos Technology (available)  Ping Identity (available)  PostX (available)  RSA (Q4)  Salesforce. com (TBD)  Sigaba (available)  Sun Microsystems (available)  Trustgenix (available)  Ubisecure (available)  Verisign (Q4*)  Vodafone (2004)  WaveSet (available)  *Delivery dates being confirmed  AOL (announced)  Communicator (available)  Computer Associates (Q4*)  DataKey (available)  DigiGan (Q3*)  Ericsson (Q4)  Entrust (Q1 2004)  France Telecom (Q4 2003)  Fujitsu Invia (available)  Gemplus (TBD)  HP (available)  July Systems (available)  Netegrity (2004)  NeuStar (available)  Nokia (2004)  Novell (available)
