Social Identities, Open IDs and Guest/Affiliate Access

Many campuses today are thinking or rethinking how they provide access to guests or affiliates. With the pervasiveness of social IDs and Open IDs (like Google, Facebook, OpenID, and others), some are considering using such user-provided credentials for access to low risk services. Join the IAM Online, Wednesday, April 13, for a discussion of the pros and cons of such an approach, and of alternatives.

Dedra Chamberlin (University of California Berkeley) will provide some background on why campuses are considering the use of social networking IDs and Open IDs on campus and what concerns such use raises, followed by case studies from Penn State and the National Institutes of Health.
