LinOTP is a linux based solution to manage authentication devices for two factor authentication with One time passwords. It is implemented as a web service based on the python framework Pylons. Thus it requires a webserver to run in.
LinOTP is mainly developed by the German company LSE Leading Security Experts GmbH. It's core components are licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License.
It is the only opensource authentication server certified[1] by the OATH initiative for open authentication.
