Shibboleth.

Shibboleth, an authentication and authorization process for web applications and web services, is an alternative to external access using a VPN (for JKU employees only) and HAN. (See LISSS, DBIS and in the EZB to find the corresponding links to log in via the authentication software HAN.)

In cooperation with ACOnet (Austrian Academic Computer Network) and content providers, the JKU aims to make more use these technologies. The requirement is that the respective content provider (publishing company, provider, etc.) makes this interface available. In this case, the individual providers should indicate in DBIS, opens an external URL in a new window how to access Shibboleth.
