Nuxeo - Shibboleth® Integration
Cross-Domain Single Sign-On for Nuxeo Applications 
The Shibboleth System is an open source software package for cross-domain single sign-on. The Shibboleth Authentication package enables a Shibboleth system to include Nuxeo's Document Management module in its federated identity management system, so that users logging into the single sign-on system will have access to their organization's deployment of Nuxeo. Federated Identity ManagementFederated identity allows for information about users in one security domain to be provided to other organizations in a federation. This allows for cross-domain single sign-on and removes the need for content providers to maintain user names and passwords. The Shibboleth Authentication package for Nuxeo authenticates the user based on HTTP headers received from the Shibboleth Service Provider. It also creates (or updates) an entry in the Nuxeo User Directory for this user. A service within Nuxeo configures the mapping between the user metadata and the header names. Shibboleth is typically used in university networks, but this package is available for any system administrator who wants to include Nuxeo in the Shibboleth-based federated identity-based authentication and authorization infrastructure. Getting StartedNuxeo and the Shibboleth Authentication plugin are available for immediate download and installation, so a proof of concept can be built quickly with the following resources:
