FY09Q1

CUPeople

IS Infrastructure reports that CUPeople is being "Maintained" all three fiscal years.   There are known security issues with the current product and it is CCDAT's understanding that the current product is being phased out.

In discussing this issue with Bob Carozzoni from IS, it appears that CUPeople will NOT be phased out, but the service as it exists today will be retired in favor of newer technologies that will not be subject to the security issues that are present today.   The current production service depends on Kerberos 4 which Identity Management is targetting to turn off by the end of March, 2009.   Bob believes that all existing CUPeople customers can be moved to a newer service by the same date.   This situation should be monitored as there appears to be little room for slippage should there be any slippage in the schedule to move CUPeople customers.

No unresolved issues to report

FY09Q1

KFront/MVS Dispatchers

IS Infrastructure lists KFront and MVS Dispatchers as "Disinvest" for all three fiscal  years.   CCDAT believes that Identify Management is looking to "turn off" Kerberos 4 sometime during FY09Q3, and both KFront and the MVS Dispatchers depend on K4.

Conversations with John Parker and Bob Carozzoni (IS) informed me that there are plans to maintain the MVS dispatchers and KFront, however they will be updated prior to Identity Managment turning off K4 next March.
