Â鶹´«Ã½

The goal of Identity Management is that every person at Â鶹´«Ã½ has a single digital identity to interact with our technology services. We manage the digital identities of our faculty, staff, students, researchers, affiliates and visitors with the Monarch Identification and Authentication System (MIDAS).

With the MIDAS web application (), individuals at Â鶹´«Ã½ can manage their own passwords and recovery settings, as well as request access to a variety of services beyond the defaults. Authorized users can also use MIDAS to manage departmental associations, permissions for others, and memberships in groups and mailing lists. Behind the scenes, MIDAS cross-references users between systems of record and keeps track of their centrally-managed permissions.

Middleware supports much of the behind-the-scenes processes that ensure that these different services work seamlessly together -- from Single Sign-On, to APIs, and dozens of cloud service integrations. For developers, Middleware offers infrastructure and resources: task runtimes, an identity-aware proxy, repositories for source code and compiled artifacts, and extensive internal documentation.

Core Identity Services

Your identity, password and permissions are managed with MIDAS, the Monarch IDentity and Authorization System. You'll use your MIDAS ID and password to log in to many online services using Monarch-Key Web Login. Additionally, you can use the Monarch Profile Manager to edit the way your profile is displayed throughout Â鶹´«Ã½ systems (like Outlook and the online directory).

Other Services

These are not systems that you would necessarily interact with on a regular basis, but they work behind the scenes to make sure your identity is consistent across a number of university services.
