Introduction
This blog will be used as a showcase to post various research items during research into Identity Management solutions for the University of Lincoln. As research is gathered it will be posted up here a long with the progress of the project.
The main aim of this project was to explore viable Identity Management solutions to meet a set of requirements set by the University of Lincolns online services team in order to guide the team into selecting an IM solution to role out over the university campus. This research project is being conducted by Tom Austin and Chris Phillips for their Industrial Project as part of their MCOMP degree.
