Avoco's Cloud Selector obviates the outmoded concept of desktop selectors or active clients. Making user's identities available from any device that supports a browser, and requiring no user install of any kind, Avoco's Cloud Selector makes cloud identities usable for the first time.
Features
- Supports common forms of user authentication (username / password, X509, self-issued identity), as well as OpenID, social network logins (e.g. Facebook) and out of band methods (e.g. SMS text message) - other forms of authentication easy to incorporate
- Built-in anti-phishing and anti-fraud technology
- Usability enhancements include auto identity use, individual selection of optional claims, 'keep me signed in', display of reason for requesting identity, display of variable claim metadata, etc.
- RP may specify multiple identity issuers
- Simple to invoke from RP - no complex objects to use
- May be accessed and controlled through secure SOAP web service
