Federated Identity for Science at BNL/SDCC

by Mizuki Karasawa (SDCC)

Tuesday 22 Sept 2020, 11:00 → 12:00 US/Eastern

BlueJeans Video Conference

In this day and age, scientific research entails accessing many computing systems and services, each requiring some form of authentication. A typical researcher may have a dozen or more "electronic identities" (usernames) and associated passwords (or other means of authentication).  Federated identity technology can potentially reduce the number of identities that a researcher needs to access systems and services in much the same way that many commercial services allow "logging in with Google or Facebook". This talk discusses the deployment of federated identity for science at the SDCC and its ramifications on accessing local and non-local services.

This is talk complements the SDCC Tech Talk "Federated Identity Management at BNL: Enabling global collaboration" by John Hover in Sept 2019
