The goal of this initiative is to replace the custombuilt programs and existing system integration with Microsoft Identity Manager (MIM) system with a cloud-first platform that supports integration with Workday, Microsoft Entra ID (Azure Active Directory), and other enterprise and institution-specific systems. The new IAM platform must support a federated model of identity governance across the entire Minnesota State system, enabling centralized policy enforcement while allowing for delegated administration at the institution level. The solution must address current limitations with identity lifecycle management, provisioning and deprovisioning, authentication and authorization, and compliance reporting. It must also support a wide range of user types, including students, faculty, staff, alumni, contractors, and guests. Note a person may be one or more of these personas at the same time.
