X.500

Introduced in 1998, X.500 is a CCITT X series standard that builds upon the standardization of the X.400, extending the protocol to include address formats. X.500 is a directory service that can contain information about users, departments, organizations, or other aspects of users or locations that can be searched and referenced to help locate a particular user or group.

Today, LDAP is taking precedence over X.500.

  • Complete detailed information and background history about X.500 can be found here.
