SWAMID
• History– Started as a collaboration between universities around
2005/2006– eduroam was initially a driving factor– Funded by participating universities and SUNET– Governed by SUNET with universities represented
![Page 14: Swamid, WAYF, Kalmar2 & eduGAIN](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/557e8987d8b42a48528b5400/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SWAMID
• Growth and use of SWAMID– Two use cases that draw adoption:
NyA and the SUNET Video Conferencing service
– NyA (National admission system)NyA issues logins to applying usersUniversities reuse those, thereby reducing costs
– More details in the presentation from EUNIS 2008 at Aarhus University:http://eunis.dk/papers/p17.pdf
![Page 15: Swamid, WAYF, Kalmar2 & eduGAIN](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/557e8987d8b42a48528b5400/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
SWAMID
• Growth and use of SWAMID (cont)– The SUNET Video Conferencing service:
Potential # of users: 350.000 students + employees– Cost of maintaining logins? Helpdesk?
– Demonstration of SWAMID:https://connect.sunet.se/swamix
![Page 16: Swamid, WAYF, Kalmar2 & eduGAIN](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/557e8987d8b42a48528b5400/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
SWAMID
• Technical model of SWAMID– So called mesh-structure:
everyone can talk to everybody– Lightweight central infrastructure– No (?) single points of failure– Flexible architecture for participating universities– Requires competence from participants
![Page 17: Swamid, WAYF, Kalmar2 & eduGAIN](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/557e8987d8b42a48528b5400/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

![Page 18: Swamid, WAYF, Kalmar2 & eduGAIN](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/557e8987d8b42a48528b5400/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
SWAMID
• Future of SWAMID!– SWAMID is used as a reference model for the new e-
id from the Swedish government– SWAMID is actively participating in international
collaborations– Working with municipals in extending federations
outside of higher education– International standards are emerging around
electronic identities, SWAMID aims to comply with these
![Page 19: Swamid, WAYF, Kalmar2 & eduGAIN](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052621/557e8987d8b42a48528b5400/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
SWAMID
• Future of SWAMID!– Working together with universities in developing
practices around managing user identities– New use cases are emerging – for example foreign
students admitted through NyA– SWAMID provides the infrastructure for connecting
AND to transfer information securely
– What can SWAMID do for you?
