Session Type: Afternoon Seminar
Interested in using Shibboleth as your Web single sign-on (SSO)? This session will provide an overview of the management issues involved in deploying the Shibboleth system as an intra- or intercampus Web SSO system. The session will provide an introduction to the federated model, the prerequisite middleware infrastructure, and the Shibboleth implementation. Two campus representatives will describe their business case for SSO software, why they chose the Shibboleth software, and their deployment process. They will also provide an overview of the policy and project management issues encountered during their deployments, as well as the impact on their business processes and help desks. This session is sponsored by the NMI-EDIT Consortium of Internet2 and EDUCAUSE.
