Southern Illinois University Carbondale Selects Fischer's Identity Management and Governance Cloud

October 4, 2018 - Naples, FL – Fischer Identity today announced their selection by Southern Illinois University Carbondale (SIUC), a premier, public research university with numerous nationally ranked academic programs. This new partnership adds to Fischer's growing list of R1 (Highest Research Activity) rated universities.

SIUC will replace their legacy identity management platform with Fischer's Managed Identity Services® solution. Fischer's Identity as a Service® offers cloud-based identity management, governance and single sign-on solutions that enable automated, end-to-end access control and enforcement, and seamless identity life cycle management for students, faculty, staff, research partners and other constituencies.

Following a rigorous evaluation process, Fischer was selected due in part to their deep understanding and support of higher education enterprise business processes, systems, and constituencies, and their exclusive ability to enable enterprise-grade provisioning and access governance from a cloud environment, automate access policy enforcement across multiple affiliations, low solution administration and rapid time-to-value.

"We are pleased to add such a prestigious university to our customer base, and to securely provide required access to applications and systems that ultimately increase productively and foster innovation through technology" said Fischer Identity's CEO Andrew Sroka. "Fischer's built-in configurations for higher education processes makes rapid time to value a reality."
