Greetings,

I'm researching digital identity management frameworks and found Apache Syncope.


I have two main questions. The first is about implementing support for new 
authenticators (e.g. U2F, hardware tokens, etc.). The second question is about 
using Syncope for IoT applications.



First: Does Syncope support multi-factor authentication? The documentation 
references OAuth, but I can't seem to find any details about how this is done.


How could I implement support for new authenticators? For example, would it be 
possible to implement a U2F module?


The NIST digital identity guidelines 
(https://pages.nist.gov/800-63-3/sp800-63b.html) detail a number of different 
authenticators and I'm curious how these could be integrated into Syncope.


Other libraries like pac4j<https://github.com/pac4j/pac4j> also include support 
for a variety of different authenticators. Could Syncope be adapted to support 
pac4j?


Second: A recent 
post<http://opensourceforu.com/2016/09/apache-syncope-2-0-brings-identity-management-iot-world/>
 on opensource forum mentions Syncope's potential regarding IoT, but I couldn't 
find any mention of this in the reference 
guide<http://syncope.apache.org/docs/reference-guide.html>. Can you point me to 
some documentation regarding IoT use-cases and scenarios?

Sincerely,
Nicholas Folse
