UserClouds

An open-source identity management platform that simplifies authentication and authorizati

UserClouds is an open-source identity management platform that helps applications handle authentication, authorization, and user data. It addresses the need for granular control over sensitive data access, providing visibility into data access patterns, context-aware access policies, and tools for reducing data sprawl through tokenization and masking. The platform is intended to support least privilege access and compliance with data residency laws such as GDPR and CCPA.

Its core modules cover secure user authentication with multiple identity providers, fine-grained access control with permission models, and centralized user data storage with privacy-preserving tokenization. The platform can integrate with systems including LLMs, Snowflake, and Databricks. The codebase is available on GitHub under an open-source license, with documentation covering deployment guides, policy configuration, and integration examples. The company is winding down, and the platform is maintained as a community project.
