| Abstract: | To manage today's complex set of networked relationships and processes a new category of service provider is emerging—the identity service provider. Higher education has many needs for identity services. This Research Bulletin describes the current efforts under way as well as the reasons that higher education must begin actively managing identity. Implementing identity services in higher education will impact policies, procedures, and services. |
