Abstract

Despite the slow uptake of federated identity management, it is still a means for companies to share numerous services, products and data. In an age where identity management is becoming an increasingly important issue for both businesses and individuals, the concept of federating it is attractive. Federated identity management allows for an economically efficient and convenient way of delivering identity services between different organisations.
