Security and Usability: The Best of Both Worlds 

10-13-2017 09:45 AM

NeSIS, a multi-institutional implementation of Campus Solutions, wanted to empower the campus security coordinators to configure security for customers as well as ensure the high power roles were evaluated centrally before being assigned in production environments. The Role Restriction Modification was created to address this need. Later, the Role Checkout Modification was developed to entrust high level functional users, authenticated through DUO, with the ability to check out certain roles in non-production and production environments for troubleshooting or maintenance. Auditing was included for annual review and documentation.

In addition, NeSIS designed a modification to allow end-users to check out other user's profiles in order to quickly and accurately recreate test scenarios or to help troubleshoot issues. An auditable and tracked solution was required in order to ensure security requirements were met. They analyzed the different types of users that needed to be tested during Bundle implementation, when new modifications were applied to the system, and with integrations to 3rd party systems. The roles assigned to these users help identify who should have access to check out the user profile based on business need and level of security.
