We are doing more and more integrations with cloud services where we provision/de-provision accounts using the vendor 
API.

Vendor API for provisioning + SAML authentication is the solution that seems to work well for us.

Subject: [SECURITY] Process for handling web-based account management

Hi everyone,

With the ever-increasing move of campus services to web-based applications (aka The Cloud), we are finding it harder 
and harder to maintain control over account management. Does anyone have a process that is working to manage these 
accounts for their institution and would be willing to share?

Thanks,

Rob
