What is Kerberos.IO?

Kerberos.IO is an open source identity and access management (IAM) solution for managing user identities, authentication, authorization, and security policies across IT environments. As an alternative to commercial IAM products like Okta or Auth0, Kerberos.IO provides core identity management capabilities for securing web applications, APIs, and infrastructure.

Key features of Kerberos.IO include:

• Single sign-on (SSO) using standards like SAML 2.0 and OpenID Connect to enable secure access across multiple applications and systems
• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for adding an extra layer of security to the sign-in process
• User management with capabilities like self-service registration, profile management, and administrative interfaces
• Authorization policies to control user access to specific resources based on roles, groups, attributes etc.
• Audit logging to track user activities for security monitoring and compliance reporting

As an open source project under the Apache 2.0 license, Kerberos.IO provides a free, customizable IAM platform for organizations looking for an alternative to proprietary solutions. It handles core IAM capability needs out of the box while also allowing customization and integration with existing infrastructure.
