Central Authentication Service (CAS)

Central Authentication Service is a SingleSignOn protocol designed to allow untrusted web applications to authenticate users against a trusted central server. It also refers to a server package by the same name that provides the service. (from WikiPedia)

There are also AuthCAS Perl modules to interact with CAS.
