Scope and Objectives |
Scope:
The scope of the Focus Group is Identity Management (IdM) for
telecommunications/ICT in general; and specifically to facilitate and
advance the development of a generic IdM framework and means of discovery of
autonomous distributed identities and identity federations and
implementations.
Terms of Reference of the FG IdM
Objectives:
The objectives of this Focus Group include preparation of deliverables that include:
- a living list of standards bodies, forums, and consortia dealing with Identity Management,
including information concerning their activities and documents in the context of an IdM framework
- a global analysis on IdM requirements and capabilities
- a set of IdM telecommunications/ICT use cases that can be used to derive requirements
In carrying out these objectives, the Focus Group may analyze other
aspects related to the objectives (e.g., frameworks).
The term IdM is understood as “management by providers
of trusted attributes of an entity such as subscriber, a device, or a provider”.
This is not intended to indicate positive validation of a person.
In summary, the objectives of the FG IdM are:
- To perform requirements analysis based on uses case scenarios
- To identify generic IdM framework components
- To complete a standards gap analysis
- To identify new standards work that ITU-T SGs and other SDOs should undertake.
Any analysis that is needed to perform the above four steps is within scope,
but does not necessarily need to be in the final FG deliverables.
