CAS Authentication

About

The Central Authentication Service (CAS) is a centralized, single sign-on authentication service for web applications. CAS was initially developed at Yale, and is now managed by JA-SIG. CAS implements the WebISO authentication framework, and seems to be heavily influenced by Kerberos.
