Lightning Talk on IdM from Rearview Mirror
Implemeted IdM from Sun, which is very feature rich. Some aspects didn't get enough attention in the design and implementation phase of the IdM project.
One of challenges is "dirty" user interfaces.
IdM from Sun is very feature rich.
Since there was a short time in implementation phase, look and feel was sometimes sacraficed for functionality.
One of challenges is "dirty" user interfaces.
Now the number of people looking at the admin side of system has grown. The team had originally assumed only one or two people would be looking at it. It turns out that systems and network systems folks wanted to look at it. More training has been neeed.
...
In summary, we replaced a home-grown system that had been around for 15 years. It was klugy and there was no audit trail. Putting out fires was hard.
Renee Q: one One of the challenges in extending life cycle is working w security office
How do you work this out to let students access resources before seeing the University has seen a student?
A: our security team has given us advice on best practices. But other than that they are hands off. So we haven't dealt w them on a continual basis, just as needs arise. Cal: do you have
Q: How is student identity established originally?
A' most : Most done thru registration. Using bannerBanner. They get a pac and access code
When they identify themselves originally they use univ ID and Banner PAC code
We rely on fact they got letter sent to them.
RL BOBQ: how How does that data get into Banner?
Well its according A: According to processes of previous schools. there There is a whoel whole IdM process that happens there, data coming in from thousands of places. It's fairly ? to those of us. It's a black an art of admissions that manages to figure out who people are. Relys Relies on paper mail. And yet this is how we identify people. It is a funny business
JIM: yes, we need close relationship w registrar and admissions
We have a ?that helps takes data in and ?
Carrot and stick.. we say, we';d like to let your students set up their accounts but here is what we need to make that happen. That helps make things happen
Florida: we did it wnen students come on campus . must align w photo ID.
They arenot really trusted until they get to campus and show a photo ID.
But with an online program where we never see the person the the Photo ID method breaks down. You don't know the person online is the same as the person getting the degree.
RL BOB: what is the obligation of the institution to ensure that the person getting the degree is who they say they are? What is the requirement?
Jim: I don't have a law degree
There are regs for granting a professonal degree
But not for undergraduates
Liz: yes these things are mysterious as far as how was gather the data.
When we talk to senior HR officers , they tell you yes, all regular staff must show ID for employee orientation. But we won't make ? do that. We trust ? who is hiring a temp
Depend on ID badging stations, they are staffed by student temps
Need to push this with the administration and be sure it gets addressed at a high level
