IAM Update
There have been many successes in our IAM journey over the past few months. We have been able to implement RapidIdentity into the various systems we use here at Miami. We have successfully implemented RI with Workday, Google Workspace, UniqueID creation and management, OpenLDAP and Active Directory, and went live with CSGold, which manages door locks and point of sale devices, including dining hall registers.
RI is also now in charge of password management, with a convenient portal at that makes it easy to change your password and update your account recovery options.
The efforts to support the Workday implementation represented a huge milestone for folks across the university. Additionally, we were able to speed up the account creation process and have an IAM Strategic Retreat in early June!
To get a full recap of what has been going on with IAM, the victories we've had, and what's next, check out our article that is live now!
