Single Sign On For E-Learning Platform

Overview

miniOrange provides SSO to E-Learning Platform using CAS (Central Authentication Service). CAS is a ticket-based single sign-on (SSO) protocol that provides users access to web applications after authentication against a central CAS Server. Its purpose is to permit a user to access multiple applications while providing their credentials (such as user id and password) only once. It also allows web applications to authenticate users without gaining access to a user’s security credentials, such as a password.
