TridentK12 Identity Manager is a software solution provided by Aegis Identity Software, Inc. It is designed to manage and secure user identities within K-12 educational institutions. The product claims to offer a centralized platform for managing user accounts, access permissions, and authentication processes. According to the vendor, TridentK12 Identity Manager is suitable for K-12 educational institutions of all sizes, including public and private schools. It is aimed at school administrators, IT administrators, teachers and staff, as well as the education and information technology industries.

## Key Features

**Single Sign-On (SSO)**: According to the vendor, TridentK12 Identity Manager offers a Single Sign-On (SSO) feature that allows users to access multiple applications and systems with a single set of credentials. This is said to simplify the login process, enhance security, and potentially improve user productivity.

**User Provisioning**: The vendor claims that TridentK12 Identity Manager provides user provisioning capabilities, enabling administrators to automate the process of creating, modifying, and deleting user accounts. This is said to streamline onboarding and offboarding processes, ensure appropriate access privileges, and potentially improve overall efficiency.

**Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)**: According to the vendor, TridentK12 Identity Manager allows administrators to assign and manage access permissions based on predefined roles, through its Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) feature. This is claimed to simplify access management, enhance security, and potentially reduce the risk of unauthorized access.

**Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)**: The vendor states that TridentK12 Identity Manager supports Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), adding an extra layer of security to user logins. By requiring additional authentication factors, such as fingerprints or one-time passcodes, MFA is said to enhance system security and protect sensitive data.

**Identity Lifecycle Management**: According to the vendor, TridentK12 Identity Manager offers Identity Lifecycle Management capabilities, allowing administrators to manage the entire lifecycle of user identities within the educational institution. This includes user registration, verification, updates, and deactivation, which is claimed to ensure accurate and up-to-date user information.

**Audit and Compliance Reporting**: TridentK12 Identity Manager is said to provide robust audit and compliance reporting features, allowing administrators to track and monitor user access activities. The vendor claims that detailed reports on user logins, access requests, and permission changes help educational institutions meet regulatory requirements and maintain a secure environment.

**Integration with Student Information Systems (SIS)**: According to the vendor, TridentK12 Identity Manager integrates seamlessly with Student Information Systems (SIS) commonly used in K-12 educational institutions. This integration is claimed to ensure accurate and up-to-date user information, automate user provisioning, and simplify the management of user accounts.

**Self-Service Password Reset**: The vendor states that TridentK12 Identity Manager offers a self-service password reset feature, allowing users to securely reset their passwords without IT assistance. This is said to reduce the burden on IT support staff, improve user satisfaction, and potentially enhance overall productivity.

**Mobile Device Management (MDM)**: According to the vendor, TridentK12 Identity Manager includes Mobile Device Management (MDM) capabilities, enabling administrators to manage and secure mobile devices used by students, teachers, and staff. The MDM feature allows for device enrollment, configuration, application management, and remote wipe capabilities, which is claimed to help maintain control and security over devices and data.

**Access Request and Approval Workflow**: TridentK12 Identity Manager is said to provide an access request and approval workflow feature, allowing users to request additional access rights or permissions. The vendor claims that administrators can define approval workflows, ensuring proper authorization channels are followed, preventing unauthorized access, and maintaining a secure environment.

Identity Management (IdM) is essentially about creating, maintaining, and retiring individual enterprise accounts for IT security. Identity and Access Management (IAM) systems encompass this but also provide a framework that goes beyond digital identities to providing access to users in various roles in a relatively automated fashion for cost and efficiency, while yet presenting minimal risk to sensitive data or equipment, simultaneously creating an audit trail for lawful compliance. Depending on the implementation needed by the enterprise (i.e. who is logging in and to what largely determines this) these concerns can be somewhat, highly, or totally overlapping areas.

Making comparisons across suites of software and their vendors can be difficult as this apparently singular body of needs is  serviced by vendors in this area in a highly modular fashion who bridge gaps with strategic or technical partnerships and integrations.  But here "Identity Management" Software is defined as software which handles all or some of the tasks related to all of the above, which may be divided into:

-- Identity governance or provisioning (basically role management with workflow controls).

-- Access (authorization or restriction of access to certain information to certain persons across locations and systems).

 ...and the various methods of enabling rapid yet secure access like:

-- Single sign-on (SSO, describes the ability to login to the system once and only once, gaining access to all systems without need for logging in again via help from a server).

-- Multi-factor authentication (using multiple, independent components to gain access, a simple step to increase security, though at a cost of efficiency for each additional step).

-- Password management and self-help for password users.

-- Identity federation, related to SSO, access spanning system boundaries (e.g. cloud access).

-- Directory / User Repository Management for tracking of users with access, and

-- Security Analytics for auditing and compliance...

...and more. IAM software is most usually sold in a modular, configurable pieces-sold-separately fashion, where each module handles some but not all of these needs. Some of the strongest vendors in this area offer high specialization and strategic partnerships with other specializers while other established vendors, via both acquisitions and development, manage to cobble together comprehensive portfolios and subsume all the various needs under one grand suite of comprehensive IAM capabilities. Enterprises have gone both ways.


A later arriving area of identity management software that greatly up-prioritizes speed and ease of access over security is called by the vendors who specialize in it Customer Identity Management, which provides simple customer registration most often via Social Sign-On capability. This allows a user to instantaneously set up an account with a service provider merely by logging in via their preferred social network account; voila, the customer has (safe, limited) access, and the enterprise gains useful information about the potential customer in less than five seconds. While traditional Identity Management Systems offer the capability to do this, smaller vendors who specialize in customer access, with its high-efficiency / low-security demands, sometimes bundle the feature with other common marketing capabilities to leverage the instantly acquired customer data (e.g. email marketing, segmentation, landing pages, etc.), thus creating a (growing) niche of customer-facing identity management systems in the process.
