news: LinOTP goes opensource

Today we published ''LinOTP'', our solution for one time password authentication based on the HMAC OTP algorithm (RFC4226), as opensource. LSE LinOTP contained several code fragments that were already published under the GPLv2.

LSE LinOTP is now available as a Community Edition, which is completely licensed under GPLv2 and may be downloaded on this site.

The LSE LinOTP Enterprise Edition continues to be provided by LSE for enterprise customers with demand for professional services, additional management features and additional supported hardware tokens.

In publishing the LSE LinOTP Community Edition we respond to several requests from interested Linux users and opened the strong two factor authentication for a wider community and made it available for non-commercial, non-enterprise use.
