FuGen Solutions to Demo Federation and Authentication in eGov Context

FuGen is participating in the Kantara Initiative’s workshop to demonstrate various identity federation and authentication schemes under consideration for adoption by various governments where these schemes are designed to support multiple identity providers, multiple credential options, and multiple assurance levels. This demonstration will illustrate how standards such as SAML 2.0, WS-Federation, OpenID, and others can be utilized to provide federated Single Sign On to government agencies for citizens to access online services.

“As governments improve access to electronic government agency services with other government partners, business partners, and with citizens, the government must have complete confidence that the technology provides strong security and access criteria for the applications and data of the involved organizations as well as an easy-to-use user experience for the citizens” says Founder and CEO of FuGen Solutions, Lena Kannappan. “As government services move on-line, agencies need to be able to easily validate and certify compliance with government guidelines and regulations. For example, the US government’s efforts to align policies and profiles around Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM). FuGen helps in both regards, making it easy for organizations to rapidly add new partners to their federation as well as validate compliance to an organization’s security and business policies. We’re pleased to take part in the demonstration because it shows our commitment to federated identity and access management standards that are proven and interoperable, as organizations increasingly look to access cloud services. Identity federation is the glue that makes this possible.”
