WSO2 Identity Solution 1.5 Released
WSO2 Identity Solution team is pleased to announce the release of WSO2 Identity Solution 1.5, feature-rich with OpenID.
The WSO2 Identity Solution enables LAMP and Java websites to provide strong authentication based on the new interoperable Microsoft CardSpace technology, released version 1.5 today.
This new release includes OpenID and OpenID Information Cards, further enhancing the WSO2 Identity Solution to cater to a wider audience for web based authentication. OpenID is a key feature in decentralizing single sign-on, much favored by many users.
The WSO2 Identity Solution also works with current enterprise identity directories, such as those based on the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and Microsoft Active Directory, allowing them to leverage their existing infrastructure. In addition to the Identity Provider the WSO2 Identity Solution provides a Relying Party Component Set which plugs into the most common Web servers to add support for CardSpace authentication and now OpenID
WSO2 Identity Solution 1.5 can be downloaded from
