NEWS RELEASE
Web Single Sign-on for Microsoft IIS 7
Cams IIS HttpModule Web Agent Ships
San Diego, CA, November 16, 2011 - Cafésoft announced today
that it has released Cams web single sign-on support for the IIS
7 web server. A new Cams IIS HttpModule web agent enhances Cafésoft's
industry leading web single sign-on support for open source and
commercial web and application servers, which includes Apache 2.0,
Apache 2.2, IIS 6, IIS 7.0, IIS 7.5, Sun ONE, Oracle WebLogic, IBM
WebSphere, JBoss, Tomcat and more.
"We began to see more customer demand for IIS 7 and expect
that trend to continue," said Norbert Kuhnert, Cafésoft
Founder and CTO. "Since the initial release of Cams, we have
strived to provide best-of-class web single sign-on support for
the Microsoft IIS web server. Our previous IIS 6 web agent could
be used with IIS 7, but porting to the new IIS 7 HttpModule API
provides tighter and more modular integration."
The Cams IIS HttpModule web agent is packaged for use with Cams
3.1, the latest release of Cams. The new Cams web agent is available
for immediate download from the Cafésoft site with 32-bit
and 64-bit for the following Windows operating system versions:
- Windows 2008 Server R2 (64-bit, IIS 7.5)
- Windows 2008 Server (32-bit, 64-bit, IIS 7.0)
- Windows 7 Professional (32-bit, 64-bi, (IIS 7.5)
- Windows Vista Professional (32-bit, 64-bit, IIS 7.0)
Cams makes sites more secure and manageable by centralizing web
application security policy decisions and management, rather than
implementing security within web applications and web servers. This
centralized approach to web security enables companies to reduce
development and administration time, complexity and costs, while
improving time-to-market, site security and software life-cycle
flexibility. Cams also provides web single sign-on to eliminate
the cost, risk and pain associated with multiple user accounts and
sign-ons for the same web site.
The Cams service oriented architecture provides the security middleware
foundation to easily deploy customized solutions into heterogeneous
environments. The lightweight, Java-based Cams policy server is
easy-to-install and configure and scales to meet the requirements
of large enterprise sites. Cams virtual directory facilitates integration
with one more user directories, including Microsoft Active Directory,
LDAP servers, SQL databases and more. Other product features include:
- Web single sign-on to web and J2EE application servers
- Access control based on roles (RBAC), HTTP query parameters,
database values, date/time, location and custom rules
- Simplified and centralized security policy administration
- Security event logging, analysis and real-time notification
- Flexible customizations via open APIs
- Cross-platform server support including Windows, Linux and Solaris
