A client-side CardSpace-Liberty integration architecture
Waleed A. Alrodhan, Chris J. Mitchell · 2008
Over the last few years, many identity management schemes, frameworks and system specifications have been proposed; however these various schemes and frameworks are typically not interoperable. In this paper we propose an approach to enable interoperation between two of the most prominent identity management schemes, namely the Liberty Alliance Project scheme (specifically the ID-FF LEC Profile) and the Microsoft CardSpace (formerly known as InfoCard) scheme. This integration should enhance interoperability by enabling users to make use of identity management systems even if the system participants are using different schemes. The main advantages and disadvantages of the proposed integration model are also investigated.
