ssIdManagement

Overview

The ssIdManagement Plone product allows ordinary computer users to manage contacts, personnel, organisational structures and organisation-wide authentication using an intuitive Plone web interface.

This package is a generic tool where contacts could include staff, volunteers, donors, customers, contacts in other organisations ... just about anything. Similarly, organisational structures might include offices, committees, departments, branches, households, and so on.

Optionally, your identity data can be periodically exported to an LDAP server to provide enterprise-quality directory and authentication/authorisation services throughout your organisation. Such services might be used to manage membership and access to web sites, mailing lists, chat servers, computer accounts, and many other types of system through the standards-based LDAP protocol.

Locally-based and independent of corporate interests, we are affiliated with the Australian Greens and part of a worldwide network of Greens parties.
