August 3, 2012

Security Policy Updates

  • Sensitive info saved/used only when required for business purposes, not for convenience.

  • Has this been used by a production app yet?
    • No.

UHIMS Events

  • Already used by KFS.
  • Peoplesoft users use UHIMC to retrieve UH Numbers.
  • Most apps should listen for deleteAffiliation instead of deleteUsername, since the latter follows ITS-specific life cycle.

  • Retrofit will not completely replace need for initial load of data.

CAS3

  • Production ready in 4 to 8 weeks.
