Federated Identity Management in a Tactical Multi-Domain Network
Abstract
Identity Management maintains information regarding
actors of an Information System, like users, equipment
and services. One important service is to disseminate and
validate credentials for the purpose of authentication and access
control. Within the context of military tactical communication
network the identity management services should, due to
the disadvantaged nature of these networks, minimize their
network demand and connectivity requirements. Security protocols
for tactical network should be efficient, prudent and be
based on well justified use cases. The contribution of this paper
is the rationale and the prototype of an identity management
system designed with these properties in mind, including
services for authentication and access control. The discussion
will suggest a set of architectural patterns for the development
and deployment of an identity management system, as well as
justifications for the simplified protocol operations.
