Cross-Domain Identity Management

Today, governmental decision makers in the European Union (EU) are confronted with the task to harmonise national electronic Identity Management (eIDM) systems with approaches in other EU Member States to allow for seamless collaboration across boundaries and business sectors. However, effective instruments to assess the current state of progress in improving eIDM interoperability are lacking.
This work aims at filling that gap by introducing a novel maturity model for assessing the capability of national eIDM frameworks to interoperate across domains, according to the visionary requirements set out by European Union institutions.
