About IDEM<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The Universit\u00e0 della Valle d’Aosta-Universit\u00e9 de la Vall\u00e9e d’Aoste has joined the IDEM<\/strong> Federation (IDE<\/strong>ntity M<\/strong>anagement for federated access), aimed at setting up the Authentication and Authorizazion infrastructure of the GARR network, as well as the interfederation eduGAIN.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>IDEM<\/strong> is the Italian national federation for universities and research institutions for authentication and authorisation, which grants access to a number of federated services using the institutional digital identity. For example, users can access electronic journals, data bases and any other resource made available by the Federation by logging in with the credentials they use for the other services offered by the University (email, Wi-Fi, etc.).<\/p>\n

Members of the IDEM Federation agree to accept and comply with of the Acceptable Use Policies (AUP)<\/a> for accessing and using the GARR network.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

eduGAIN<\/strong> is the inter-federation service that connects identity federations worldwide and enables collaboration among them.<\/p>\n

Access to eduGAIN is granted exclusively through an identity federation; therefore, participation requires membership in an existing federation. IDEM is a member of eduGAIN.<\/p>\n

In addition to the standard eduGAIN authentication (invoked by each individual inter-federation service), the University of Valle d\u2019Aosta provides, for certain services, an integrated eduGAIN authentication managed through a dedicated UNIVDA Service Gateway<\/a>.<\/p>\n
