  Abstract

Federated IAM (Identity and Access Management) is an authentication and authorization scheme that is performed among multiple security domains. Once the federation is made in the domains, users can access the online resources of other organizations using their home organizational accounts. Identity federation is an union of the domains for managing the federated IAM, and its main role is to make them build trust relationship. More than 70 countries around the world have their own identity federations because of its benefits such as the reduction of password fatigue, strengthening of personal information protection, and increasing the possibility of share of online resources. In Korea, KAFE (Korean Access FEderation) identity federation is operating since 2015. However, due to the poor domestic ecosystem regarding the federated IAM, the proliferation of the scheme is progressing slowly. This paper introduces the federated IAM including the description of its system components. In addition, this paper deals with the detailed design and implementation of our federation services to encourage institutions and higher education in Korea understand and adopt the federated IAM more. Finally, the implementation results are qualitatively evaluated.
