June CAMP Workshops to Focus on Shibboleth and Secure Collaboration

Created by Colleen Luckett (EDUCAUSE) on April 04, 2007
NMI-EDIT logoTwo upcoming CAMP workshops (detailed below) in Portland, Oregon, CAMP Shibboleth: Flexible Web-Based Authentication and Authorization and Advanced CAMP: Scaling Secure Collaboration, will focus on middleware deployment.

CAMP Shibboleth: Flexible Web-Based Authentication and Authorization

(June 25–27)
Overview: This CAMP will offer concrete practice and real-world experience from institutions running Shibboleth in production for controlling access to both on- and off-campus services. Participants will learn the answers to questions such as:
  • What is Shibboleth and how does it work?
  • What is the business case for it and how can I sell it on my campus?
  • What is the migration path to support intercampus Web SSO in the future?
  • How much identity management infrastructure do I need?
  • How can I use Shibboleth to simplify my application deployment and maintenance?
Higher education IT managers, project managers, middleware architects, and systems analysts involved at a technical, management, or stakeholder level in supporting Web-based services will benefit most from this workshop. Register before May 29 for low, early-bird rates.

The Future of Interboundary Collaboration

Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:The Future of Interboundary Collaboration (ID: EAF0615)
Author(s):Kenneth J. Klingenstein (University of Colorado at Boulder)
Origin:Contributed by EDUCAUSE Grant Programs (CAMP) (02/10/2006)
Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:It all fits together: the campus authentication (and identity management) infrastructure is leveraged to share resources without divulging identity (if required) in a way that scales. So what's next? What if we successfully enable entirely new types of applications and relationships? How will this affect libraries, curriculums, and research projects? Will the boundaries between institutions blur? How will vendors play a role? Will we outsource our identity for someone else to manage because of liability and resource constraints? This session looks into the future and how our interboundary work might inform our institutions and change the nature of how we teach, research, and collaborate.
