Abstract

This paper summarizes the results of a workshop at the IFIP Summer School 2016 introducing the EU Horizon 2020 project CREDENTIAL, i.e., Secure Cloud Identity Wallet. The contribution of this document is three-fold. First, it gives an overview of the CREDENTIAL project, its use-cases, and core technologies. Second, it explains the challenges of the project’s approach and summarizes the results of the parallel focus groups. Third, it focuses on a specific challenge—the protection of metadata in centralized identity providers—and suggests a potential architecture addressing this problem.
