Key Projects
  • COmanage is the Collaborative Organization Management Platform intended as a demonstration of the capabilities offered by tying together federated identity management (Shibboleth), groups management (Grouper), and (coming soon) privilege management (Signet) into a cohesive support infrastructure for a variety of collaborative applications.
  • eduPerson/eduOrg (LDAP Directory Schema). The EDUCAUSE/Internet2 eduPerson task force has the mission of defining an LDAP object class that includes widely-used person attributes in higher education.
  • Grouper is an open source toolkit for managing groups. It is designed to function as the core element of a common infrastructure for managing group information across integrated applications and repositories.
 
  • Middleware End-To-End Diagnostics Advisory Group (MW-E2ED) is developing a diagnostic tool platform.
  • Shibboleth is developing architectures, policy structures, practical technologies, and an open source implementation to support inter-institutional sharing of web resources subject to access controls.
  • Signet is working on the problem of developing methods for consistent and cost-effective centralized management of user privileges across a range of applications
