Description
Granting researchers access to our Digital Infrastructures is a fundamental step in Serving the User Base - this year’s conference theme. However, providing a secure, user friendly, reliable Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure (AAI) is not a walk in the park for Research Communities. Challenges range from attribute release, to operational support, to non web access, with many Communities looking outside to technology providers and generic e-Infrastructrues to find a sustainable solution for their critical components.
2018 saw over 20 Research Fields come together and expose their common requirements for Federated Identity from the wider community. These requirements, and a related set of recommendations, can be found at [https://fim4r.org/documents/][1] and are already being incorporated into the road maps of future projects.
We present an overview of the insights collected by the FIM4R Research Communities and look to the future. How will the recommendations help to shape the evolution of Federated Identity Management?
