Keycloak is an open-source identity and access management solution designed to add authentication to applications and secure services with minimal effort. It eliminates the need for developers to handle user storage or authentication processes themselves.
- Single-Sign On: Users authenticate with Keycloak rather than individual applications, facilitating seamless access across multiple applications.
- Identity Brokering and Social Login: Easily enable social network logins and authenticate users with existing OpenID Connect or SAML 2.0 Identity Providers.
- User Federation: Connect to existing LDAP or Active Directory servers, or implement custom providers for other user stores.
- Admin Console: Centrally manage all aspects of the Keycloak server, including user federation, identity brokering, and fine-grained authorization policies.
- Account Management Console: Allow users to manage their profiles, passwords, two-factor authentication, sessions, and account history.
- Standard Protocols: Supports OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, and SAML for seamless integration.
- Authorization Services: Beyond role-based authorization, Keycloak provides fine-grained authorization services for detailed policy management.
Keycloak is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation incubation project, continuously evolving to meet modern authentication and authorization needs.
