Advantages of a versatile authentication system

One of the most diffused way to annoy users is, without any doubt, using a login for every web application in the organization.

Just think about remembering a login account for computer, proxy, wifi, CRM application, file server and for everything you can figure out on your LAN.

Thankfully there is a way to avoid all this stuff. Its name is Single Sign On (SSO) and it will be the key of your users heart.  A unique login for every authentication and authorization process in the organization, which facilitates user management, log storage and every procedure in the auth management.

3DGIS software is equipped with a versatile authentication system, easily configurable to match your organization needs.

  • Form based, with persistent sessions.
  • HTTP BASIC authentication headers (an IEFT RFC-based standard)
  • HTTP Digest authentication headers (an IEFT RFC-based standard)
  • HTTP X.509 client certificate exchange (an IEFT RFC-based standard)
  • LDAP
  • OpenID

  • Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS)
