KI TI WG

Group– Formed in ’08 as a LAP SIG– Operates as KI since spring ’10– Jointly chaired by Orange and Ericsson– Voting members: Orange, DT, Oracle, Fraunhofer Fokus, Ubisecure & Ericsson– 30 people on the member roster

KI TI WG

Charter– Goal: help reconciling fragmented efforts in the telco

specifications development area and in the telco market place regarding IdM.

– How: acting as a forum to facilitate the dialog between KI and the telco industry sector.

– The WG wants to:• Provide telco knowledge/needs on the IdM space towards KI • Facilitate that KI specifications address telco specific needs • Produce telco adaptations/refinements in KI specifications • Drive communication between KI and other telco work/standardisation

through liaisons

“Telco services are no longer clearly separated from the

Internet, particularly lookinginto identity issues.”

KI TI WG

Massively Scalable IdM Systems Architecture– Target: L (50 m. users) to XXL (500 m. users).– Focus: telecom use-cases

• other systems: governments, banks, web-2.0, etc.– Idea: virtual identity infrastructure

• transparent & seamless to both users & developers.– End goal: provide a ‘cook book’

• enabling implementation of a reference architecture.– Please find more info at:

KI TI WG

• SOAP & REST Harmonisation– From network API study; Telco network APIs come in

two flavours, namely REST and SOAP.– WI; see how one can expose both HTTP/RESTful and

SOAP versions of the APIs easily and in a consistent way.– Typically, for IdM & security, OAuth (REST) is often used

for simple and non-secure services.– For more complex and secure services, a SOAP binding

using ID-WSF as a standard component could be the choice.

• SOAP & REST Harmonisation

Opportunity to push ID-WSF as a FW for SOAP-based Telco APIs.
