About this sector
Identity and Access Management. Who are you, how do we recognise you, what may you do, and how is that boundary enforced? Part 1 (technology, A. Laube) covers the vocabulary and actors of IAM, the models (isolated, central/federated, hub-and-spoke, provisioning), and the new decentralised world of Self-Sovereign Identity with the Swiss E-ID as its live case. Part 2 (processes, E. Richter) covers how an organisation actually builds and runs IAM: standards and stakeholders, integrating data sources, and modelling the life-cycle processes for accounts, passwords, consents and customers.
