Abstract
One or more methods of translating identity protocols and a device and a system implementing such methods are described herein. One such method comprises configuring a gateway to communicate with a first identity protocol and a canonical representation, with the canonical representation being different than the first identity protocol. The method may further comprise: including the first identity protocol in a first communication between a first computing device and the gateway, and translating at least a portion of the first communication from the first identity protocol to a canonical representation. The gateway may then translate the at least a portion of the first communication from the canonical representation to a second identity protocol and sending the first communication to a second computing device, including the first identity information in the second identity protocol in the communication.
