Apache Fortress
Apache Fortress is an open source project of the Apache Software Foundation and a subproject of the Apache Directory. It's a standards-based access management system, written in Java, that provides role-based access control, delegated administration and password policy services with LDAP.
Standards implemented:
- Role-Based Access Control (ANSI INCITS 359)
- Administrative Role-Based Access Control (ARBAC02)
- IETF Password Policy (draft)
- Unix Users and Groups (RFC2307)
Fortress has four separate components:
- Core - Java Access Management SDK
- Realm - Web Container security for Apache Tomcat
- Rest - HTTP protocol wrappers for the APIs
- Web - HTML pages for the APIs
History
Fortress was first contributed in 2011 to the OpenLDAP Foundation[1] and moved to the Apache Directory project in 2014.[2]
