Abstract

Techniques for performing identity and access management for an equipment-specific human machine interface (HMI) are provided. One technique includes detecting via a HMI application configured to control an equipment a request from a user agent to access a configuration of the equipment. In response to the detection, the request is re-directed from a first authentication mechanism used by the HMI application to control access to the equipment to a second authentication mechanism provided by an identity provider. After re-directing the request to the identity provider, it is determined that the user agent has been successfully authenticated using the second authentication mechanism. An access grant then is then provided, via the HMI application, to the user agent in response to the request to access the configuration of the equipment.
