About the Identity and Access Management Team
The Identity and Access Management team is one of the five teams within ITS Applications. We provide identity management, authentication, authorization, and directory services that support the entire university community and six other University of Texas institutions. Our products are the entry point to many services on campus and therefore we collaborate on a regular basis with other groups within ITS and around campus to deliver the best service possible. We also serve as integration specialists since our identity management and directory services gather data from many source systems to provide a consolidated view for consuming systems supported by other campus developers.
