Welcome!

 
Fischer is dedicated to helping educational institutions achieve their goals by providing a catalyst to help underserved institutions achieve the benefits of InCommon and the resources enabled through InCommon such as Internet2's Net+ Services, EDUCAUSE, HathiTrust, Regional Network resources and many others. Joining InCommon, and federations offered by many Regional Networks, requires institutions to use the Shibboleth-based authentication mechanism. That’s where Fischer comes in.
 
Ignite-Federation is a hosted Shibboleth IdP service that enables single sign-on to InCommon and Regional Network resources without the need for institutions to implement and manage Shibboleth or its infrastructure. Fischer provides everything you need; we configure your virtual IdP to InCommon requirements, monitor your solution 24/7, maintain and update Shibboleth, and enable ongoing user attribute updates - all within a SOC1 Type II data center.
