November IAM Online: Going Passwordless at Stanford
Wednesday, November 13, 2019
2 pm ET | 1 pm CT | Noon MT | 11 am PT

Capping a multi-year effort to move away from passwords, Stanford University has deployed the final component: client 
certificates that strongly authenticate both the user and the device. This process is integrated with the university's 
Shibboleth identity provider and also requires a two-factor login once every 90 days.

Michael Duff, chief information security officer at Stanford, will describe why the university took this approach and 
lessons learned during the journey. He will also discuss the underlying systems and key design decisions mode over the 
six-year project. Join us to hear this story of "safer and simpler computing," which dramatically improves security and 
the user experience.
