Omada (identity management system)

Omada is SLU’s system for managing digital identities and access rights. It is used to create, update, and deactivate user accounts, as well as to assign access to various IT systems.

Omada replaces the previous system, IDIS, and contributes to increased security, efficiency, and improved control over who has access to what within SLU.

What is Omada used for?

Omada manages the entire lifecycle of user accounts at SLU – from the time a person joins until their account is closed.

The system is used to:

• Create user accounts for employees, affiliates, and students
• Automatically assign basic access rights
• Request additional system and file permissions via the self-service portal
• Approve and review access rights (for managers and system owners)
• Ensure that the right people have the right access at the right time
