[G. Allegri]

Hi Massimiliano,
I've just found the time to have a look to GeoShield. Thanks for it. Just a
question: have you considered the Security components provided by 52 North?

>  Dear list,
> it is a pleasure to announce the release of GeoShield (version 0.2.1).
>
> GeoShield is a project born to offer a centralized way to define security
> access-control to geo-services.
> It acts like a proxy, intercepting all the communications between clients
> and OGC compliant services (WMS, WFS, and in future WPS, SOS).
> GeoShield is able to manage users and groups, it handles authentication and
> privileges settings among groups and registered services. It is capable to
> analyse requests applying the filters set to the user and manipulating the
> response.
> It is a server side security software to secure OGC services.
>
> The interested people can find the source code and a web archive package
> (.war) ready for Tomcat:
