Authorization Strategies Panel: Provisioning, Deprovisioning, and Related Methodologies

Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Authorization Strategies Panel: Provisioning, Deprovisioning, and Related Methodologies (ID: CAMP08113)
Author(s):Marc Huffstickler (McGill University) and Charles F. Dunn (University at Buffalo)
Origin:Contributed by EDUCAUSE Grant Programs (CAMP) (02/13/2008)
Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:

Provisioning access is an IAM function, and deprovisioning that access is a security objective. How might these combined objectives be met with common process, and what sorts of access should be managed by it? Data, applications, networked services, and physical facilities all have particular provisioning and deprovisioning needs. Campus cards, for instance, mitigate risk only when the access information associated with them is current. When a card's rights get out of sync with its bearer's status, the card itself becomes a risk. Addressing this issue, given all the authorization and access points, can be a challenge unless they are tied into the enterprise identity management system.

Reengineering Administrative Partnerships

Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Reengineering Administrative Partnerships (ID: CNC9413)
Author(s):Susan A. Cover (University of Delaware) and Joseph DiMartile (University of Delaware)
Origin:Presented at CAUSE Conferences (Archives) (1994)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:This paper describes the reengineering of Delaware's student services. The functions of billing, collection, cashier, registrar, dining services, financial aid, ID card, parking, housing, and long distance telephone service have been merged in a partnership of process and technology, and located in a single building. The Student Services Building follows a "branch bank" model with a large lobby where self-service technologies enable students to perform routine business; providing easy access to transcripts, grades, schedules, financial aid and billing information. An open counter is staffed by "generalists" from several campus units who have been cross-trained and provided technologies to enable them to deliver a variety of services. This successful merger of business units was facilitated by the application of appropriate technology and has resulted in staff reduction, cost containment, and improved customer service and satisfaction. Paper presented at CAUSE94, the full proceedings of which are available through this Library as PUB1094.

Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:This paper describes the development of partnerships among information technology and administrative and academic departments at Boston College to deliver information and service to this self-sufficient generation in a fast, familiar, intuitive way.
