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
