As higher education environments become more complex, determining who should have access to what and under which circumstances can be challenging. In this session, we’ll take a practical look at how modern IAM approaches can help institutions make more dynamic, context-aware access decisions based on roles, affiliations, attributes, and changing identity information.

Join Unicon’s IAM Architects for a live use-case demonstration exploring how higher education institutions can simplify access decisions through dynamic, policy-driven identity management.

Even if you can't attend the live session, we'll send the recording either way.

What you'll see in this session

How modern IAM solutions can help institutions:

  • Create dynamic policies that adapt as a user’s identity, role, or affiliations change.
  • Manage complex access requirements across students, faculty, staff, researchers, affiliates, and other unique populations.
  • Automate access decisions to ensure users receive appropriate access throughout their lifecycle.
  • Reduce administrative effort while improving security, consistency, and governance.

Live demo of Navigate Identity

Through a live demonstration of Navigate Identity, we’ll walk through how dynamic policies are created, managed, and applied to real-world higher education scenarios. If you can't join us on November 10, register anyway and we'll send you a link to the recording.

You’ll see how institutions can move beyond static access models and adopt a more flexible, scalable approach to identity governance and access management.

Whether you are modernizing your IAM environment, improving governance, or looking for ways to simplify complex access decisions, this session will provide practical insights you can apply within your institution.
