Inside the Architecture: Built for Modern Infrastructure
Built for enterprise demands, the Curity Identity Server offers a modern identity infrastructure with advanced authentication. It scales securely with your architecture, protecting identities across distributed systems and user journeys.
Curity Architecture
A Modern Infrastructure
The Curity Identity Server was built with close attention to the architecture to ensure it addresses the identity structure of today, as well as prepared for the challenges of tomorrow. It is built on the design principle of separation of concerns, with each sub system serving only its specific purpose. And doing it really well. The effect of this is enhanced security, increased flexibility and true scalability, technical and operational.
Apps and clients
Centralized user authentication for all your websites and apps
Server applications
Unified authentication enables your server applications to access shared APIs.
APIs and microservices
Dynamic OAuth token generation that secure API access.
Customer Services Integrations
A standardized way to manage your users with one API.
Custom Authentication without Code
The Authentication Service is an advanced authentication multiplexor that can be configured to meet any app or website’s needs. With 25+ ready-made methods and a workflow engine of actions running on login and SSO, the Curity Identity server allows you to authenticate users for API access without custom code.
Token-based Architecture
The Token Service is the cornerstone for securing APIs. It is responsible for issuing tokens (tickets) with information about the caller for access control decisions. To really leverage on OAuth and OpenID Connect for distributed authorization, a flexible Token Service is a necessity.
API Driven User Management
The User Management Service offers a standardized way to manage users and simplifies access to legacy data sources. You can integrate with any user repository or database, allowing developers to work with JSON over REST, instead of SQL queries and LDAP operations.
Advanced Configuration Management
Curity Identity Server comes with a carrier-grade configuration service, where transaction-based changes, rollbacks, backups can be made of your entire cluster with a single command. The cohesive configuration service provides an easy-to-use Web UI, scriptable Juniper-style CLI, standards-based RESTCONF API and XML config files, built for automation and massive scale.
Deploy on Any Platform
The Curity Identity Server can be deployed in any environment and fits easily into your CI/CD pipelines with its multi-faceted management capabilities. With ready-made Docker images and Kubernetes helm charts, a Curity cluster that auto-scales linearly without inter-node dependencies can be setup in hours.
