SILVANUS is a scientific collaboration EU-funded project with the goal to mitigate the growing impact of wildfires caused by global climate change by implementing a comprehensive global fire prevention strategy. Due to the significant complexity and collaborative nature of the project which involves more than 50 parties, it is a challenge to ensure unified and governed security especially that the platform is based on heterogeneous and multi-component architecture. To ensure the security requirements are delivered, different security architecture perspectives need to be considered and one of these is identity and access management. In this paper we describe the identity and access management architecture perspective of the SILVANUS project. We start with the high level overview supported by requirements expressed as policies, introduce the identity governance and administration as well as access management areas, and then analyze a more detailed level of the architecture based on XACML concept. We also cover identity and access management processes and monitoring which are inherent constituents of the complete solution. Finally, in certain aspects we consider different maturity levels and position appropriately the current development stage.
