news in authentication and ID federation

[Pierre Le Sidaner]

Hi

I am at a conference on the European cloud EOSC, there is some major 
evolution on the tools for IDFederation. I have talk about that on 
previous interop, at that time it was only intention. Now the 
"prototype" is on line

https://wiki.geant.org/display/ED/Demo+Service

Idea is to use either shibboleth or open id, to give via GEANT the 
possibility do organise group (LDAP meaning) here a team.

User of your team can be authenticate by orcid, edugain ... and you have 
possibility of give open access or validation for access to group. In 
few month the actual proto system will be in production.

We should have a look to this as a model and may be a possible solution 
of multiple federation possible for a user using a single system 
authentication for a service provider. It include also to associate 
multiple ID authentication of a unique user.

see you at interop

Regards

Pierre
