Information Security Architect/ Identity management system

Client: State of Colorado - Colorado Department of Education

Duration: 6 Months

  • The current Colorado Department of Education (CDE) identity management system was implemented the Oracle Identity Management Suite.
  • The software components include:
  • Oracle Internet Directory (OID)
  • Oracle Access Manager (OAM)
  • Oracle Identity Manager (OIM)

  • OAM Self-Service Password Reset Functionality
  • High Availability (HA) architecture
  • The CDE seeks to upgrade and or replace the current identity management system through a technology upgrade that could include architectural changes where the authorization work is pushed to respective applications as opposed to a Delegated Administration model.
  • The application support is both in-house and outsourced to vendor-supported systems that interface with the identity management system through SAML XML.
  • For this project, CDE not only requires an individual with strong knowledge of Identity Management Systems, and best practices, but also someone familiar with architecture and implementation of Identity Management systems.
