Resources for getting started in Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Recently a NSF project asked CTSC about some resources for getting started in identity and access management. The following was our response:

In terms of some guidance on IAM, the Higher Ed Information Security Guide has a good primer on Identity and Access Management:

And while parts are specific to InCommon, other parts of the CI InCommon Roadmap are more general and would serve you well even if you use, e.g., Google Ids:

In terms of examples from other NSF CI projects, work from OOI and DataONE serves as good examples:
