7、tity management terms and definitions Summary Recommendation ITU-T X.1252 provides definitions of key terms used in identity management (IdM). The terms are drawn from many sources but all are believed to be in common use in IdM work. This Recommendation is not intended to be a huge compendium of Id

8、M-related terms. Instead, the terms defined here are limited to those considered to constitute a baseline list of the most important and commonly-used IdM-specific terms. This Recommendation includes Annex A that explains the rationale for some of these key terms. One of the main objectives of this

9、Recommendation is to promote a common understanding of these terms among the groups currently developing (or planning to develop) IdM-related standards. The definitions are constructed so that, as far as possible, they are independent of implementations or specific context and, therefore, should be

10、suitable as baseline definitions for any IdM work. It is acknowledged that, in some instances and contexts, greater detail may be required for a particular term, in which case, elaboration of the baseline definition may be considered.

11、252 2010-04-16 17 ii Rec. ITU-T X.1252 (04/2010) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a perm

12、anent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establi

13、shes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary stand

14、ards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Reco

15、mmendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents a

16、re used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed In

17、tellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not rec

18、eived notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/i

21、0) Introduction Compilation of this list of IdM terms and definitions began in 2007. It has had many iterations, received contributions and comments from many people and been reviewed many times. The terms and definitions are from many sources. Some of these, but by no means all of them, are listed

22、in the Bibliography. In some cases, the original definition was suitable and included, but in many cases it was modified or combined with others resulting in a “best of breed“ for a particular term. Considerable effort has been made to ensure that the definitions convey the same meaning as those in

23、other IdM Recommendations | International Standards. This means that, in some cases, the words may not be identical but the meaning should be the same. Because a term may be used in a number of different contexts, the definitions are confined to a baseline or simple definition of the term without in

24、cluding alternatives or variations that may occur. If additional detail or clarification is needed, this can be added as required. The fundamental points from which the definitions are derived are discussed further in Annex A. Rec. ITU-T X.1252 (04/2010) 1 Recommendation ITU-T X.1252 Baseline identi

25、ty management terms and definitions 1 Scope This Recommendation contains a baseline set of definitions of terms commonly used in identity management (IdM). The definitions provide a basic definition of the term, i.e., they are intended to convey the basic meaning although exceptionally, a note is in

26、cluded when it helps to clarify the definition. The rationale for some of the key terms/definitions is included in Annex A. NOTE The use of the term “identity“ in this Recommendation relating to IdM does not indicate its absolute meaning. In particular, it does not constitute any positive validation

27、 of a person. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.
