OpenAthens
OpenAthens is an identity and access management service, supplied by Jisc, a British not-for-profit information technology services company. Identity provider (IdP) organisations can keep usernames in the cloud, locally or both. Integration with ADFS, LDAP or SAML is supported.[1]
OpenAthens for Publishers[2] software for service providers supports multiple platforms and federations.
Technically, the service provides deep packet inspection proxying (in a similar manner to EZproxy) and SAML-based federation,[3] as well as various on-boarding services for institutions, consortia and vendors.
