IDENTITY AND ACCESS MANAGEMENT IN CLOUD
PROJECT METHODOLOGY:
In this research project, a quantitative research method using CloudSimEx, CloudReports will be adopted to evaluate the performance of the Identity and Access Management on the cloud environment (IAM). It uses CloudSim as its simulation engine and provides an easy-to-use user interface, report generation features and creation of extensions in a plug-in fashion. In order to access IT resources in the cloud, dummy accounts will be provisioned that will enable users to authenticate through an Identity Manager, upon successful authentication of user credentials in the cloud web server, there is a mechanism to validate the accessibility with the Identity Manager and perform authorization..
IAM in the clouds and enterprise IAM have many similarities.
There are known IAM metrics like the one below:
Password reset volume per month.
Average number of distinct credentials per user
Number of uncorrelated accounts
Number of new accounts provisioned
Average time it takes to provision or de-provision a user
Average time it takes to authorize a change
Number of system or privileged accounts without an owner
Number of exceptions per access re-certification cycle
Number of reconciliation exceptions
Separation of duty violations
