gluu-server

gluu-server is an open-source identity and access management platform for Linux. It brings together open-source components for handling authentication and authorization. The software is intended for environments that need a central way to manage how users and clients gain access.

A primary use case is single sign-on, allowing authentication to be managed centrally rather than separately for each connected service. gluu-server also serves as an OpenID Connect provider for identity-based access workflows. Its other stated uses include centralized two-factor authentication and OAuth client authentication.

The open-source license allows the software to be used and examined under the terms of that license. As a Linux product in the Security & Privacy category, it is suited to systems where identity, access control, and authentication are managed as security functions. The supplied distribution is described as beta, so deployment should take that status into account.

MirrorNest mirrors the official gluu-server build directly on its own storage. Each mirrored build is scanned for malware before it is published in the catalog. This distribution approach gives Linux users a catalog copy of the official build while keeping the product within the Security & Privacy software category.
