Description
Master Thesis Authorization and Identity Management for Smart Factorys Motivation and Task Identity management deals with the administration of digital entities and their access authorisations to systems and applications. While there are common solutions availabale for IT, there is a lack of them for OT/IACS/IIoT. The task of this thesis is first to summarize, which solutions for identity management exist in OT. Additionally it should be evaluated, if sufficiently mature concepts from IT could be adopted. From this, an identity management concept for a smart factory (multi-device, multi-user, multi-process) is to be derived and prototypically implemented. Important aspects include lifecycle management and metadata, such as current machine commissioning and training status of workers. The verification of the concept and implementation can then be performed on our industrial pro- duction line. Optionally, the concept can be co-integrateed with existing research on multi-factor- authentication at the production line. Prerequisites The following list of prerequisites is neither complete nor binding, but shall give you an idea, what the topic is about: • Knowledge of IT security • Basic programming skills • Ideally experience with Identity Management in IT (e.g., AD/LDAP) • Ability to work self-directed and systematically Please attach a current grade sheet and a short CV to your application so that we can assess your qualification for the topic of your choice.
