With growing technical landscapes and the rise of cloud providers many companies face a complex and diversified infrastructure and application setup. Managing multiple identities within IT systems for a single person is expensive, inefficient and often insecure. ZITADEL provides a modern platform for managing identities, providing secure user authentication, and integrating customer use cases on top. The open-source (Apache 2.0) platform is available as a public cloud SaaS Service, dedicated instance on any infrastructure provider, or self-hosted (https://github.com/caos/zitadel). ZITADEL solves multi-tenancy and self-service for B2B customers much better than most solutions, while providing a detailed and unlimited audit trail. CAOS ltd. was founded in April 2019 in eastern Switzerland as an open source software company and consists of 11 highly-qualified employees with in-depth experience of IAM and cloud-native application development.

 

Why should this Project win a DINAcon Award?

Caos hat mit ZITADEL ein open source IAM entwickelt. Innerhalb kĂŒrzester Zeit wurde das Projekt auf die Beine gestellt und auf grĂŒner Wiese aufgebaut. Mit einem revolutionĂ€ren Ansatz bringt ZITADEL im sonst fast ausschliesslichen proprietĂ€ren Mark etwas Bewegung. Aus der Webseite: ZITADEL ist die Cloud Native Identity and Access Management (IAM) Lösung. ZITADEL ist optimiert fĂŒr den Einsatz als Service Provider IAM.
