Description of assignment
Delegating authentication to a trusted identity provider is called federation and is used by many web applications today. Think of logging in with Google or Facebook on your favorite website.
Many IAM solutions today offer secure options for mobile user authentication. They ensure seamless login and transaction signing without the need for passwords or even usernames.
In this internship assignment, you will create an identity provider that does not use passwords. You will start with a market analysis of possible IAM tools. Based on your analysis, you will make an informed choice to develop your solution.

Project methodology
Our internship assignments follow the Scrum project methodology to ensure a structured and efficient approach to the (sub)tasks. This reflects IdentIT’s project approach. Scrum is a highly adaptable framework that promotes collaboration, adaptability, and transparency. Within this framework, we organize the work into time-bound iterations called sprints. Each sprint lasts two to three weeks with clear objectives and tasks. At the beginning of each sprint, interns and supervisors hold a sprint planning meeting to define the objectives and create a sprint backlog. Weekly stand-up meetings help track progress and identify any obstacles that need to be addressed. At the end of each sprint, a sprint review, if possible with a demo, is held to present progress and gather feedback. The Scrum methodology also helps foster a collaborative and adaptable work environment, ensuring the best results are achieved within the set timeframe.
