RapidIdentity, our identity and access management platform, is purpose-built for educational institutions. Our higher education identity and access management solutions address the unique challenges faced by colleges and universities, such as affiliations scenarios. In turn, they help faculty and students thrive—and enable your institution to excel at its mission.
Identity-first Approach
Your students, staff, and faculty often assume several roles, such as faculty in student or researcher roles. Our IAM software detects these multiple roles and affiliations, merging them into a single account, which allows IT to be more responsive with less resourcing as you deliver a superior experience to all of your users.
Designed for Higher Education Standards
With RapidIdentity, you can safeguard your digital environment while maintaining compliance with key standards, such as InCommon, and promoting a collaborative, efficient, and user-friendly academic environment.
Reduced Load on IT
A low-code environment gives you control and flexibility to connect any system with the automation you need to adapt to any environment and preserve your investment in other technologies. With our cloud-based platform, you can also reduce the costs and time required to maintain your solution.
Save your IT staff time to focus on long-term initiatives. With automated identity management for higher education, they can manage identities without time-consuming, manual processes.
Share access to your institution’s data with relevant agencies securely and easily. Our identity management for higher education utilizes single, linked universal identities for several attributes.
Secure your network with single sign-on and multi-factor authentication from RapidIdentity. Our higher education identity and access management solutions offer several authentication options.
New students, faculty and staff are on- and off-boarded each year. Visiting students and visiting professors need access as soon as they arrive. Automate the process to get people the access they need instantly with access controls from RapidIdentity.
