Notes

Authentication Use Cases

First Production Version: What do you need?

CMU - two use cases - Michael

  • 1) applying through CommApp apply to CMU
  • 2) common app id to login and obtain andrew id to get permanent credentials.
    Get to campus, might up loA later. Want to eliminate confusion about how to elimate
  • No LoA 2 for first stage
  • Send CommonApp id (and Commit id) to CMU when they log in? Don't know.
  • Won't use CommIT after get permanent credentials when they matriculate
  • Why - CMU will raise LoA later, Should be able to use a campus id to
    transfer once they are in HE.
  • Over time, CMU believes their id will be stronge
  • Value
    • Support costs
    • No need to send out key for activation of permanent credentials.
    • Using ID for Application process so with multiple sites

NCSU - Harry (Use Case #2) -

  • persistent identity important
  • No LoA 2 for first stage
  • Need identifier mapping to reduce admin work on back end.
  • Trust the CommIT Id more. 
    • Have a history and prior relationship that raise your level of confidence

PSU - Vince

  • Matching of third-party information for applicants is most important 
    • (CommIT identifiers associated with SAT and ACT scores)
  • Fed authn (Use case #2 - need to check with IAM folks)
  • No LoA 2 for first stage (probably)
  • Once they pay enrollment fees, then they would get PSU Access Account

Wisconsin - Karen/Keith

  • Need to speak with Admissions
  • Distance Ed/LoA 2 is most attractive - see large increase there
  • LoA 2 is good for first stage, but LoA 1 would be helpful.
  • Matching and duplicate records important
  • Use CommIT to get a NetId.
  • No need to send one time key to request NetId

Indiana - Mark

  • Will add IU's use case to the wiki. 

Basic Use Cases
--------------------------

  • fed authn during admissions
  • fed suthn to facilitate acquisition of final account
  • matching for backend admin.

Levels of Assurance

LoA 1 is standard; LoA2 is gravy.
