There is growing interest in collaboration and resource sharing among institutions and
organizations. In this paper, we investigate the problems of identity management inherent
in distributed subscription-based resource sharing. The paper describes the design, implementation
and performance of a system that provides controlled access to subscription based
remote network services through a browser. A third-party authentication protocol
is designed and employed to exchange security assertions among involved parties. The
web servers use plug-ins to provide an authentication-delegation service and a policybased
authorization service. Users can use a single userID and password to access multiple
subscribed resource sites
