Abstract

An identity system and method that stores identity information related to different principals and stores the identities on different or disparate systems such that the different systems can use the identities. A synchronization process synchronizes identity information and rules based on identity information between a primary computer system and a disparate secondary computer system. Accordingly, the secondary computer system has a representative database of identity information following receipt of the converted information, wherein the representative database is representative of a primary database of identity information stored on the primary computer system. In order to synchronize a conversion may take place. The conversion process may be performed by a dedicated process designed for the secondary system. Alternatively, the conversion is performed by a generalized process using mapping tables designed to convert identity information into multiple different formats.
