Symmetric identity federation for fixed-mobile convergence
Makiko Aoyagi, Tsuyoshi Abe, Kenji Takahashi · 2008
This paper discusses issues with identity federation for fixed-mobile convergence to enable single sign-on to applications across networks, leveraging both fixed and mobile terminals. Standardized in OASIS SAML v2.0 specifications, identity federation is a mechanism to establish a link between the identity of a service and that of a different service over a network. Through these links, authentication results can be shared in single sign-on transactions.
