The IGA Modernization project team has accomplished Phase 1, centered on Group and Role Management, and implemented midPoint and Grouper, key components of the InCommon Trusted Access Platform. With this milestone, the IAM team introduced Enterprise Group Services (EGS). EGS enables university departments to automate the management of application and system authorization groups through Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) rules. Group membership within EGS is dynamically managed, with members added and removed automatically.

The next phase of the project has begun. Phase 2 will involve integrating the Workday and UT system feeds with midPoint, transitioning customers to EGS, and as a result, retiring SailPoint IIQ. Initial project planning is nearing completion while the team focuses on upgrades to both midPoint and Grouper.
