Basic Concepts of OpenDOF Security

Basic Concepts of OpenDOF Security

DOF Security and the Authentication Server (AS)

As part of DOF security, an Authentication Server (AS) is used to authenticate the credentials of each component on a network. The AS centralizes security information, creating a shared trust environment—without exposing credentials—while allowing full access control. This means you have control over who (or which resources) has access and what levels of access they have. A single AS can also provide multiple security domains.

OpenDOF Libraries for C Released

Today Panasonic contributed an implementation of the OpenDOF protocols in C. This implementation is fully compatible with the previously released Java libraries, and allows interconnected systems that use any mixture of the two libraries. Panasonic will continue to contribute code over the next months.
