• Strategies• Consolidating identities into a single repository with multiple

roles• Move towards central authentication• Streamlining account provisioning synchronization

• Challenges• Shibboleth is complicated and has a steep learning curve• Each service provider implementation has proven slightly

different or non-standard• e.g. use of the “unspecified” format• e.g. Shibboleth vs ADFS

• Shibboleth versioning differences has caused challenges• i.e. Version 3 of IdP and version 2 of SP
