Education Identity

We understand your challenges

CyberSphinx understands the unique identity security requirements in higher education, where complex use cases involve adding potentially thousands of identities each year while maintaining past student records. To effectively manage the end-to-end lifecycle of students from application to alumni, as well as staff and affiliates, institutions require a solution capable of supporting their current capacity and scaling exponentially.

In today’s diverse environment, with international, remote, and on-campus users, additional challenges arise. Nevertheless, all users demand a unified experience with a streamlined onboarding process, including features like single sign-on to alleviate the burden of managing multiple login credentials. Legacy or homegrown systems, often disjointed, struggle to meet these user expectations.

Legacy systems also expose security vulnerabilities, but by implementing a modern identity management solution alongside Privileged Access Management (PAM), institutions can significantly enhance their security posture, reducing exposure to cyber-attacks.

Numerous institutions are already benefiting from CyberSphinx’s central identity management platform, recognizing the need for greater simplicity, compliance, and security in their operations.
