Collaboration Account

Definition

A way to use Touchstone for people that do not have an MIT Kerberos account, nor an account with other members of the InCommon Federation

MIT Touchstone Collaboration Accounts are for people that do not have an MIT Kerberos account, nor an account with other members of the InCommon Federation, but need to authenticate to MIT application servers that have been integrated with MIT Touchstone, or are part of the Shibboleth InCommon Federation.

IS&T is no longer offering Touchstone Collaboration accounts. Until a new collaboration account system is launched, please contact the IS&T Service Desk if you need access to any products or services.
