What is Federated Identity Management (FIdM)

![Page 4: IAM Online Friday, February 12, 2010 “Introduction to Federated Identity Management” John O’Keefe, Lafayette College Questions either via Adobe Connect.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062803/56649c9c5503460f9495b375/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Questions
• How many off campus applications do you have (or are you planning to have)?
• How do these service providers
• verify the identity of your users?
• know who’s eligible to receive these services?
• know the user is active and hasn’t left the institution?
• How comfortable are you with the privacy and security of the identity data?

The Problems
• Access to outsourced services in a traditional way does not scale
• Authentication is managed by identity holder (user) on a case-by-case basis
• Authorization is managed by the Service Provider without institutional verification
• Security and privacy varies from service to service, user to user
• Accuracy and timeliness not managed by anyone
• In 2005, 11 different LC username/password combinations
