Overview
OIT is beginning the first steps in a long-term plan to rethink how we create, change, and remove accounts that provide campus community members access to IT systems. Because of the campus’s evolving security needs, we need to give people the right level of access to the systems they need, when they need it. This project will identify our options and recommend a path forward.
Current project phase
We recently completed interviews with over 100 campus participants and heard our priorities should be centralization, automation, and clarity around provisioning, reprovisioning, and deprovisioning. Using the input gathered from these interviews, OIT is in the early stages of creating a "future state" proposal and recommendations for getting there. Our proposal and recommendations will undergo additional reviews by campus stakeholders. We look forward to sharing with the campus community in August or September.

FAQ
How will this affect me?
This project is all about making plans. Future projects will implement changes that this project recommends and those changes may affect the campus community. Changes may include identity and access management guidelines for IT providers and more clarity when credentials, like IdentiKey, are deprovisioned.
