About Shibboleth

Adds Shibboleth authentication to MODX Revolution. Shibboleth is an open-source project that provides single sign-on capabilities and allows sites to make informed authorization decisions for individual access to protected online resources in a privacy-preserving manner.

The Shibboleth add-on can be used to secure individual resources and to authenticate MODX user accounts.

Requirements

You must have Shibboleth installed on the web server hosting MODX. See the documentation for information about configuring Shibboleth.

Because Shibboleth provides very little security when used over unencrypted (HTTP) connections, only HTTPS URLs are supported by this extra. Your site must have SSL support.
