Abstract:
–Identity management uses models to accredit, manage and use digital identities. These models connect isolated islands of authentication and authorization systems in a federated system. However flaws in the design and concept of these models, such as identity theft and even users’ lack of confidence in truly using these models, can lead systems that use its benefits to being non-successful on the market. This article presents an analysis of seven design and concept flaws of the identity management model of the main tools on the market, including Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), OpenID, Microsoft CardSpace and an academic framework called Inter-Cloud Identity Management (ICEMAN).
