DOCUMENT #: GSC13-PLEN-12 FOR: Presentation SOURCE: ITU-T AGENDA ITEM: Plenary 6.4 CONTACT(S): Chae-sub.lee@ties.itu.int IdM: Platform for Ubiquitous Chae Sub LEE Submission Date: July 1, 2008 Highlight of Current Activities (1) • • • IdM-GSI is a grouping of ITU-T Study Group Rapporteurs working on Identity Management (IdM) for telecommunications. i.e. Joint Rapporteur Group (JRG) Objectives – Progress IdM technical work in the various SG Questions in a well-coordinated/complementary manner and avoid duplication and conflict – Produce ITU-T Recommendations in a timely manner – Similar to other ITU-T GSI’s – Organized and led by relevant SG Question Rapporteurs Some sessions are joint, others are just co-located sessions 2 Highlight of Current Activities (2) Report Title Report Contents Identity Management Ecosystem and Lexicon • Living List of organizations working on IdM related subjects. • IdM related terms and definitions in use. Identity Management Use Cases and Gap Analysis • Identifies, describes and analyzes IdM gaps, • Documents example use cases illustrating the gaps. • Used to derive the requirements for a generic IdM framework. Requirements for Global Interoperable IdM • Provides a global analysis on IdM requirements and capabilities, • Includes requirements for the protection of personally identifiable information (PII). Global Interoperable IdM Framework • Describes an extensible, platform-independent, identity protocol-independent, IdM Framework to support existing and new IdM solutions. 3 Strategic Direction (1) • More connections using various types of IDs for specific services and applications Mobile Phone Nr Fixed Phone Nr Ids for Devices/Sensors Deriver’s License Id Insurance Id Employee Id Personal Id Birth date Social Id WiFi Id Cable/IPTV Id Credit Card Id Bank Id Passport Id Ids for Person Internet Id Ids for Household Ids for Telecom 4 Strategic Direction (2) Connecting to: Any Device/Network/Service/Where/Time Ubiquitous into the Life: USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Networks), U-health, U-commerce, etc More IDs and various Identification Mechanisms 5 Challenges • Meet increasing usage of IDs ‒ Currently use Identifiers only for identification of entity, e.g., security aspect (authentication and authorization) ‒ But need extension of usage, like triggering of services, identifying services and way of profiling end-user preferences, etc. (routing, profiling, positioning and etc.) ‒ Use method: Typing, Reading or Triggering • Standards for Global Identifiers and Identification Mechanisms ‒ Philosophy and Principles for creation, use and manage IDs ‒ Standards for reflection of Global/Regional/National perspectives 6 Next Steps/Actions • Need Global Working Platform for study: – Philosophy and Principles – Framework for Technical Standard • ITU-T will promote collaboration with relevant SDOs to develop technical standards reflecting global views • PSO should support that ITU-T will initiate a study for developing ‘Regulatory Framework for IDs’ also reflecting global views Global Village Information Society A Global IDs Information Society Z Information Society B Global Identification Mechanisms Global Connectivity Networks and Service Platforms 7
