  11. Shib: The Experience Users They may thank you, or they may not even notice Developers If they already delegate authentication to the server, they may not notice either If they currently handle authentication themselves, they may love or hate you. Security & Sysadmins They'll thank you later

  12. Developers Who is logged in? User information is in the headers PHP: $_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'] ASP: Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_USER") JSP: request.getHeader("REMOTE_USER") Perl: $ENV{"REMOTE_USER"} http://shib.kuleuven.be/download/sp/test_scripts/

  13. Again, why Shib? So much more than WebSSO Enabler for secure collaboration sharing web resources beyond your institution Tool for implementing privacy policies clearing house for user attributes Tool for role-based authorization enables fine-grained control based on user attributes
