Introducing Guest Account Management Solutions for Higher Ed
Cirrus Identity has been busy expanding our suite of services, and we are proud to announce our new Guest Management package. This packages combines social identity login (with our familiar social-to-saml gateway), a stand-alone external identity provider (branded with your campus look and feel) for users who don't want to use social login, our invitation service, an account linking service, an identity provider proxy, and APIs to integrate with your enterprise identity systems. Together, these services enhance the user experience for guests trying to gain online access at universities.
The growing need for campuses to simplify guest access to online services hasn’t been met with a viable solution, until now.

Today, an article came out in the Huffington Post offering advice about what really matters through the college application process. The key, the author Michael Mulligan, says is to "work hard, do good, and light the fires of your own genuine curiosity". We love that: "Light the fires of your own genuine curiosity." In a world where we have access to as much information as we do, the only way to standout is to be our authentic and passionate selves. YES.
