Shibboleth - 27 Resources An open-source middleware solution created by Internet2/MACE to allow organizations to exchange information about their users in a secure manner that ensures protection of privacy. The purpose of the exchange is typically to determine if a person using a web browser has permission to access a target resource based on information such as being a member of an institution or a particular class. Shibboleth facilitates the sharing of Web-based, protected resources between institutions. When a user at one institution tries to access a resource at another, Shibboleth sends attributes about the user to the remote destination, rather than making the user log in to that destination. Using the attributes, the remote destination decides whether or not to grant access to the user. Shibboleth preserves the user's privacy in three ways: 1. It releases only necessary information, which may not include the user's identity. 2. It reduces or removes the requirement for content providers to maintain accounts for users. 3. It allows access to controlled resources from anywhere in the world as a trusted member of your home institution. Presentations (1)
