Univention Nubus

Digital sovereignty starts with identity and access management.

Visit Univention Nubus

Univention Nubus is an open-source identity and access management platform that centralizes user administration, role-based permissions, and application access in one portal. It addresses scattered logins, manual onboarding and offboarding, and dependency on individual vendors by providing single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, and automated user lifecycle management across connected systems.

Core capabilities include central rights and user management, an Integration Catalog with preconfigured packages for applications such as Nextcloud, Open-Xchange App Suite, ownCloud, Collabora Online, and Microsoft 365, plus connectors for Active Directory and Google Workspace. Open interfaces cover OIDC, SAML, LDAP, and REST APIs. The platform supports operation on-premises, in the cloud, or as SaaS, and aligns with GDPR and BSI IT Baseline Protection requirements. The education-focused UCS@school edition adds automated school year rollover, ID Broker integrations, Apple School Manager and Microsoft 365 connections, and links to school administration systems and state directory services.

Nubus targets public administration, education, and enterprises. The product is open source under the GNU AGPLv3 license, with enterprise support and SLA options available for productive operation; specific plan and pricing details are not stated on these pages.
