Hi All,

I receive this response from Phil West earlier this week when we were working on releasing the Cookbook. The red text in the doc is what we've seen, but the purple is new.

(Thanks Phil…we'll get back to you with a follow up note.)

Best,
Ann

Ann,

 

I was searching through my Outbox – and I realized that my Sep 25th follow-up to this email was never sent.

I am attaching a copy of the AD ASSURANCE document with embedded comments.

 

If this turns out to be a duplicate email, I apologize for the repetition – but I was unable to find the original thread and I wanted to be sure that I got the info to you.

If the original email never went out, I apologize for the additional delay.

 

 

If we need to convene a follow-up chat on the AD Assurance topic, please let me know.

 

Once we have the MOU with Khalil in place, I am looking forward to an official escalation process being in place to make the Q&A process much easier and flexible.

 

Thanks!

-Phil

Ann,

 

Thanks for the note.

 

I have make some progress at getting answers to specific issues around the AD Assurance topics.

I was trying to get them all covered – but I have a few more calls to go through to try to get answers for the rest…

So, I will collect the data that I have thus far and send it to you.

 

We are also working with Khalil to engage an MOU between Internet2 and Microsoft, which will add an official technical escalation process with our Support organization.

 

I will pull together my data and send it to you.

Thanks, again, for your patience and cooperation.

 

-Phil

Hi Phil and Chris,

 

Any updates on the two calls we held in August on AD Assurance  or the items below?

 

Thanks,

Follow-Ups…

 

First, I want to say a huge THANK YOU to David Turner for joining us for this format. 

 

I think we covered a wide array of issues and everyone has a better understanding of the challenges faced by the rest of the team.  Nate, I appreciate your feedback on the priority items that are blocking the member school deployments.

 

I know that David took down some Action Items for additional investigation, and I will work with him to get the right folks identified to provide that feedback.

 

It appears that two distinct follow-up topics from this call are:

1.      FIM (Forefront Identity Manager)         http://www.microsoft.com/fim/

a.      With respect to the DirSync questions and the need to bulk provision inside and outside of an AD environment

b.      With respect to the Security Model enforced across the WAAD instance, and how we handle “Rights Mgmt” for the PII inside WAAD

c.      With respect to third-party systems (ala, Internet2’s Grouper) for group membership integration

2.      Device-Level Security

d.      Adrian Wilson and I have been working up some scernario’s around what is available today – and we would love to discuss the specific challenges and opportunities

e.      David Turner mentioned that he has some work specific to “Zero SignOn” (vs. Single SignOn) where device-level identification can be coupled with biometric or other means to identify a known-device and user

 

I will work with Adrian to get some details around these two topics, and we’ll re-group to setup two more follow-up calls to target these topics.

 

Again, thank you to everyone for jumping on the call and helping drive the discussions.

 

I will be in touch soon to schedule a time to start these follow-up calls – meanwhile, we will provide feedback via email as it is available.

 

-Phil
