EDUCAUSE Joins InCommon FederationCreated by Valerie M. Vogel (EDUCAUSE) on November 4, 2009
EDUCAUSE announced today it has joined the InCommon Federation, the U.S. identity and access management federation. In an identity federation like InCommon, participating identity providers (such as colleges and universities) and resource providers (like EDUCAUSE) agree on a set of shared policies, processes, and technology standards. This greatly streamlines collaboration among multiple organizations because federation members agree on these policies and processes once, rather than each time they sign a contract with a new partner. Read more in the press release.
