Higher Education

Why is Identity Management so important for educational institutions today?

The Challenge

Institutions of Higher Education are faced with many issues surrounding Identity Management.
  • Universities and colleges must give students, faculty, staff, and business partners access to a variety of applications, all while keeping the institutions environment secure; to provide a central point of control for successful administration, authentication, authorization, audit and management of online digital identities.
  • Cost effectively manage large, dynamic user populations through the use of automation, delegation and self-service capabilities.
  • Improved service levels, user productivity, and customer satisfaction increase the amount of access requests an institution can respond to.
  • Compliance with regulations and government legislation requires an institution to provide detailed reports as well as policy enforcement capabilities.
