Abstract:

My contribution to WP11 will be a technical evaluation of credential-based identity management systems, e.g. Liberty Alliance and IBM idemix, towards their suitability for privacy in business scenarios if a delegation of a credential is needed. 

The starting point for the evaluation criteria is the FIDIS’ study on mobile identity management (D 3.3). These criteria relating to privacy are to be extended in order to be used for the evaluation of credential based identity management systems in given scenarios. As a result, I expect conclusions for the suitability of these identity management systems in these scenarios. The systems will be classified and additional requirements for mobile identity management systems will be derived from the identified shortcomings.
