CHALLENGE
A major higher education institution coming off of an unsuccessful implementation of a legacy identity and access management system needed help designing and implementing an identity management system for the future.
REQUIREMENT
Implement a centralized, secure identity management solution for an enterprise system with 30,000+ users leveraging 150+ applications to achieve their business needs.
SOLUTION
Leverage a combination of the existing Windows Active Directory foot print, extended into the cloud via Azure Active Directory Connect to take advantage of Azure Active Directory security features, single sign on integration capabilities and role based access controls. Use the robust single sign on (SSO) capabilities of Azure Active Directory to implement single sign on capabilities for the portfolio of 150+ different applications the education institution and its users connect to via SAML and OpenID Connect.
RESULTS
A robust effective implementation of a hybrid identity management system that takes advantage of the Azure Active Directory native security tools and controls while providing auditing, monitoring, tracking and reporting mechanisms all built into the solution. This allowed for the VDI team to migrate their Citrix solution onto the new infrastructure and serve desktops for the 15,000 Users. All three sites were deployed in 100 days with fully functional HA and DR capability
