Haiku Evolution

Move away from Webauth

accepted

8 Tokens

Proposal

Currently to log in to your Haiku website, you use your Single Sign On credentials, and these credentials are authorised through a central system called WebAuth. WebAuth is now in it's end of life phase, meaning that the functionality is being deprecated. If you would like to find out more about this, you can see the information provided by IT services here: https://help.it.ox.ac.uk/webauth/eol With this in mind, it is essential that we move to a new Single Sign On Authentication system as soon as possible, to ensure that we are ahead of the curve, and have plenty of time to ensure that we have the new system implemented before WebAuth is decommissioned. There are a few other options available, and we are in the process of evaluating which we would like to work with.
