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.
