U.T. System Federated Identity Management Update Fed/Ed XV Coordination Meeting Paul Caskey (pcaskey@utsystem.edu) U.T. System Administration
U.T. System IdM Federation U.T. System Federation in production 9/2006 Policies in place, majority of legal agreements signed by institutional authorities, now working on audit standards 10 apps in production Wireless still a hit (take a little walk to the 1900 block on Penn. Av NW and you can see it) Several other administrative apps MobileCampus at multiple institutions Blackboard New ones in development: grid portal, CTSA forensics app Federated AuthN working great, now moving to authZ Attributes, entitlements present data management challenges Now musing about interfederation and federation on a wider administrative boundary (governmental), since there are numerous collaborative programs in Texas that span university systems
FBCA Cross-Certification Began cross-certification work 12/2006 Due to our PKI structure (VeriSign), each institution will cross-certify separately, but all based on common policies (System Administration going first) Created addendum to federation Member Operating Practices document to supplement VeriSign CP/CPS (mainly registration and credentialing aspects) Currently doing a trial mapping to see what improvements to policy are appropriate
