OpenAM provides open source Authentication, Authorization, Entitlement and Federation software. Through OpenAM, the community actively continues development of OpenSSO.

OpenAM provides core identity services to simplify the implementation of transparent single sign-on (SSO) as a security component in a network infrastructure. OpenAM provides the foundation for integrating diverse web applications that might typically operate against a disparate set of identity repositories and are hosted on a variety of platforms such as web and application servers.

From the OpenAM Roadmap, you see that the community has extensive plans for future deliveries.
