A Jupyter server extension to proxy requests with AWS SigV4 authentication. This server extension enables the usage of the AWS JavaScript/TypeScript SDK to write Jupyter frontend extensions without having to export AWS credentials to the browser. A single /awsproxy endpoint is added on the Jupyter server which receives incoming requests from the browser, uses the credentials on the server to add SigV4 authentication to the request, and then proxies the request to the actual AWS service endpoint. All requests are proxied back-and-forth as-is, e.g., a 4xx status code from the AWS service will be relayed back as-is to the browser. Using this requries no additional dependencies in the client-side code. Just use the regular AWS JavaScript/TypeScript SDK methods and add any dummy credentials and change the endpoint to the /awsproxy endpoint.

OpenPortalGuard is a flexible, extensible, and massively scalable access control system for portals. It provides single-sign-on features for username/pw and smartcards as well as declarative access control.

IMPORTANT : The project is now being hosted at http://code.google.com/p/ciform Plug'n Auth is an API providing easy integration of different authentication mechanisms into web applications. Within a few steps web admins will be able to change both the authentication backend and the logon frontend at any time with no further effort

PyOTP is a simple Python library to handle one-time password generation and checks as specified in RFC2289 (previously RFC1938) and implemented in SKey, OPIE, and a number of other systems.

UnityCA is a Certificate Authority "front end" based on the Community-Oriented CA (COCA) model, which was primarily developed for non-profit "free CAs." Organizational and end-user interfaces provide trusted web management of the installed CA (eg ElyCA).

privacyIDEA is a management and authentication system for two factor authentication. You can use OTP tokens, OTP cards, SMS, Smartphone Apps to incorparte the second factor. It can even manage SSH keys and supports Offline OTP. The latest version can manage and enroll user certificates. Its modular design makes it easily enhancable. It runs on Linux. Applications and workflows can be connected to privacyIDEA hence enabling two factor authentication in your system logon, web applications, SSL VPNs, firewalls and many more. A detailed audit log gives you full control of what happens when, where (why? ;-) and by whom. A demo site is available at demo.privacyidea.org.
