IRIS-IAM (Authentication and Authorisation)
Objective
To provide an infrastructure for authentication and authorisation which followed the AARC Blueprint Architecture model of a hub (implemented through IRIS-IAM) managing identities and user attributes.
Summary of work undertaken
This work related to identity and access management (IAM) and specifically to connect the IRIS proxy (IRIS Indigo IAM, or IRIS-IAM for short). A trial of a PAM module was run which enabled login to an ssh server using accounts from IRIS-IAM, with test results from Cambridge, Durham, and RAL.
