Part 1: Understanding Higher Ed’s Unique Identity Management Demands
[Sept 30, 2025] – Identity Automation, a Jamf company, is pleased to announce that its industry-leading IAM platform, RapidIdentity, has been awarded a transformative contract with The Inter-University Council Purchasing Group (IUC-PG) of Ohio.
Hicksville Public Schools, located in New York, serves a diverse community of students and staff. Before implementing RapidIdentity, the district relied on a cumbersome spreadsheet-based process to manage user accounts, which created security inefficiencies.
Managing digital identities isn’t just a technical challenge in higher education—it's foundational for academic success and institutional security. With Jamf’s recent acquisition of Identity Automation, colleges and universities now have access to an integrated, future-ready solution.
From cloud-based applications and 1:1 device programs to remote learning capabilities, school systems need to effectively manage thousands of digital user identities. That is where Identity and Access Management (IAM) comes in.
In today’s classrooms, digital identity is more than just a login—it’s the foundation of a student’s learning journey. From signing in to apps, accessing coursework, or switching between devices, students and educators need seamless, secure access to the tools that power teaching and learning.

In today’s classrooms, students and teachers rely on digital tools for learning. However, when students struggle to log in or must wait for days or weeks to access learning applications, it disrupts lessons and causes frustration.
