Federated identity verification and access control for public service entities

Abstract

A processing system including at least one processor associated with a second public service entity may obtain a notification of at least a first guest user to access at least one network-based resource of the second public service entity, where the at least the first guest user is associated with a first public service entity, and may obtain a request from a first device of the at least the first guest user to access the at least one network-based resource of the second public service entity. The processing system may then query an attribute provider to obtain one or more attributes of the first guest user and grant the first device an access to the at least one network-based resource of the second public service entity in accordance with at least one policy based on the one or more attributes.
