Extranet

The goal of this project was to

  • share internal data to external people
  • precisely control the access rights of users because each user has only access to part of the extranet
  • authenticate users with X.509 certificates
  • integrate with the existing infrastructure
  • integrate of existing documents

The solution deployed is using eZ Publish, an open source content management system, interfacing with the internal LDAP server. The certificates are managed with EJBCA, a certificate authority management software.

Most steps are automated, and certificate distribution happens securely with the minimum of human intervention.
