Crowd

# Crowd — Identity Management Simplified

Crowd is an application security framework that handles authentication and authorization calls for your web-applications. With Crowd you can quickly integrate web-applications into a single security architecture that supports single sign-on and centralized identity management.

The application is divided into two parts:

- The administration console is a clean and powerful web-interface to manage directories, users and their security rights.
- The integration API provides a platform neutral way to integrate web-applications into a single security architecture. With the integration API applications can quickly access user information or perform security checks.

The first time you access the Crowd administration console, you will be walked through the initial configuration of your deployment.
