Netegrity, Inc. announced a freely available JSAML toolkit to make it easier for corporate developers and ISVs to quickly create and deploy SAML-ready solutions. With Netegrity’s JSAML toolkit, developers can enable their applications and security products to become solutions that securely exchange user identity and entitlement information with partners using the SAML language. Netegrity’s is a reference implementation of SAML based on the OASIS group’s proposed Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) standard. Netegrity recently announced its AffiliateMinder product for securely managing affiliate user networks. “TransactionMinder” was also introduced as a new product line for securing the emerging web services platforms. Both of these products are based on the SAML specification and will enable security across e-business networks. Netegrity JSAML Toolkit is a light-weight toolkit that comes with complete documentation and use-case examples (including source code). JSAML Toolkit is expected to be available as a free download in October 2001. The company will also offer technical support programs for the toolkit.
