ECAR's 2011 Study of Identity Management in Higher Education

Where are you in your implementation of identity management strategies and where do you stand relative to your peer institutions? The EDUCAUSE Center for Applied Research (ECAR) has just released the findings of its 2011 study of identity management in higher education, which illuminates the state of IdM practices at over 300 institutions. The study builds upon ECAR’s 2006 IdM study and focuses on issues related to authentication, enterprise directory, reduced or single sign-on, automated role- or privilege-based authorization, and federated identity.

Join us to discuss the study’s findings with its principal investigator, Mark Sheehan, senior research analyst at ECAR.
