Identity Broker available in Hardware, Software, VMWare, and Cloud Image

The realm of SOA and Cloud has the broadest range of disparate identities as any set of technologies attempted to be deployed. Forum STS provides a standard-based identity management platform that can consume, translate, generate, and authorize credentials in message based and protocol based formats. Further, credential tokens can be converted from any format to any format allowing Forum STS to bridge environments, portals, cloud providers, and SOA domains.

Forum STS enables enterprises to centralize access control and identity management and provides comprehensive identity token translation with direct integration with all major identity servers including CA Siteminder, IBM TAM, RSA ClearTrust, Oracle codeID, Sun JSAM, HP SelectAccess, Kerberos KDC, ActiveDirectory, and LDAP

Federated SOA

SOA is comprised of a disparate group of technologies that represent the clients, intermediaries, and end services. Token identities range from protocol based identities such as Basic auth or SSL X.509 mutual auth, to message identities such as SAML or WS-Tokens. The ability to Federate the SOA components is rooted in the ability to facilitate consumption and generation of any identiy token from an identity broker that can accept credentials in any format.
