Abstract

The chapter argues that an enterprise should develop its own Identity Management Architecture (IdMA) before attempting any Identity Management implementation. It begins with a discussion of the development of the Reference IdMA. It also discusses the issues of how to incorporate existing enterprise workflows and processes and other specific needs of an enterprise into an IdMA. It proposes the incorporation of existing information security controls into the IdMA by the use of chokepoints to monitor identified security hotspots. The issues surrounding the privacy of personal data as well as the protection of corporate data and assets are discussed and it is shown how these issues may be addressed and included in the Reference IdMA. Finally, there is a discussion of how to include federation with other enterprises as part of the enterprise’s IdMA.
