anonymous outer identities are perfectly legal and valid in 802.1X environments
with remote proxying - eg eduroam.

if you block/reject suers who have an anonymous outerID then you are in violation
of eduroam rules . users with JUST  @realm as their outerID are also 100% valid (!)

you need to investigate CUI (Chargeable-User-Identity) as thats EXACTLY what that attribute
is for - to identify users based on something other than their outerID or Calling-Station-Id
(both of which they can change!).
