OpenID Provider

OpenID is an open standard with which users can log into OpenID-enabled websites using a completely decentralized authentication system.

When a user enters a website which supports authentication with OpenID, a security association is established between the website and the OpenID provider system. The user is redirected to his OpenID provider authentication system. Authentication is done by the user with his OpenID provider and upon success, the authentication result is provided to the requesting website.

RCDevs OpenID Provider can work with OpenOTP and TiQR authentication back-ends.

Compared to all other OpenID provider implementations, RCDevs OpenID Provider is extremely easy to implement:
Provided that you have a working WebADM server with OpenOTP and/or TiQR, the setup installation just consists in adding the OpenID WebApp in WebADM and adding a markup in the index page of your public website.
Please read documentation for details.

With OpenOTP, your OpenID users can authenticate with any supported One-Time Password mechanism including:


With TiQR, your OpenOD users will authenticate by simply scaning a QRCode on the OpenID login page..
