About wayf.dk
WAYF is the identity federation for research and education in Denmark and the North Atlantic. It passes users from their home institution's login system to external login-protected web services, sending only the minimum user information each service needs. Service providers can also receive authentications from other European national eIDs through NemLog-in.
Its customers are research and education institutions whose users log in through WAYF, and web service providers that accept those logins. Institutions can also share login-protected services with other institutions or use services operated outside their own organisation.
WAYF is a member of REFEDS and participates in eduGAIN. NORDUnet A/S operates its central servers and systems, and HackmanIT GmbH performs penetration tests on the software WAYF develops. The company holds an ISO 27001 certificate and undergoes an annual state-authorised NSIS audit. Recent news items report new service providers joining, including NB Medier and Acentio.
Product: WAYF identity federation: institutional single sign-on for login-protected web services, connected to eduGAIN and NemLog-in.
