Identity and Access Management is the combination of Identity Management and Access Management.
Context
- Computer asset management is typically approached by listing the identifiers of real-world entities and developing some method, like Role Management to determine which computer asset can be accessed by the Principal identifier that is representative of that real-world entity.
- In this context Identity is taken to be the Identifiers and Attributes held by a Data Controller in a User Object.
Solutions
There are many proposals for what IAM should include including one attempt at an IAM Reference Architecture.[1] The generic approach seems to separate the Identity Proofing from the Access control as was implemented by Kerberos.
