• You must have access to any required external systems, for example LDAP or SAML Identity provider (IDP).

• For client certificate authentication, a working HTTPS configuration with client authentication on the Tomcat is required. See Configure https for Tomcat.

• For SAML authentication, it is required to have an identity provider, such as Smart ID Digital Access component (Hybrid Access Gateway), with the correct configuration for Identity Manager authentication. For information and examples with Digital Access, see Enable two-factor authentication to Identity Manager clients via SAML federation.

To set up an authentication profile:

1. Go to Home > Authentication Profiles.

2. Click +New to add an authentication profile.

   1. Select a Profile type:
      

      
      
      

   2. For SAML profiles, the Priority will be assigned automatically.

   3. Click Save + Edit.
      
      A new tab is displayed where the authentication profile is configured. See the following sections for how to configure the authentication profile you have selected.

3. For all authentication profiles there is a Processes tab. Select from the drop-down list, which process that shall run after a successful login in Identity Manager Operator. Read more in section Set up authentication profile in Identity Manager#Configure post-login process.

4. To edit an existing identity template, double-click on its name.
   
   

The system will lock internal users after too many failed logins. The users can be unlocked automatically after a certain amount of time. To configure this, follow the instructions below.

Administrator

In Identity Manager Admin, do the following:

1. In Identity Manager Admin, Go to Home > Authentication Profiles.

2. Select the profile with an INTERNAL profile type.

3. Define the Maximum failed login count.

4. Optional: Enable the Automatic unlock mechanism and set the Blocked user wait time in seconds.

5. Click Save. 

Tenant

 In Identity Manager Tenant, do the following:

1. Open the tenant application and navigate to the icon next to the info button. A dialog appears.

2. Define the Maximum failed login count.

3. Optional: Enable the Automatic unlock mechanism and set the Blocked user wait time in seconds.

4. Click Save.

In Client Certificate Configuration: select the method which extracts the information from the certificate used to identify the user:

• User Principal Name (UPN)

• SAN Email (RFC822Name)

• Subject CN

• Subject Email

• Object Security Identifier (objectSid)

1. In Connection settings:

   1. In Connection string, enter the URL of the LDAP server and base address in the directory service, for example:

      where

      ou = organizationalUnitName
      dc = domainComponent
      
      For more information on LDAP string attributes, see RFC 2253, LDAP (v3): UTF-8 String Representation of Distinguished Names.

   2. In Username and Password, enter the Active Directory domain user name and password. 

2. In User search:

   1. Select Direct binding or With password comparison. Direct binding attempts to bind to the LDAP with the user entered. With password comparison the data of the LDAP entry is retrieved and the password is compared with the entered password.

   2. Enter a Search pattern. Here are two examples:

      
      
      

      
      
      

   3. If password comparison was selected, enter the Attribute for password used in LDAP and, if applicable, the mechanism that LDAP uses for Password encryption.

3. In Group search:

   1. In Basis for group search, enter the subpath to the group information in LDAP.
      For example, if you find the group information under ou = groups, dc = myCompany, dc = de, enter the following:

      
      
      

   2. In Filter for group search, enter a filter expression, that defines the search starting with the subpath above.
      
      

      For example, if the group membership of users is stored in a multi-value attribute member (via the DN), enter the following:

      
      
      

   3. In Attribute for group, enter an attribute with unique values to define the group belonging. The groups to which the user belongs are compared in the last step with the assignment to the roles in the system and access to the system is assigned based on the assigned roles.

      For example, enter the following:

      
      
      

4. Group Permissions

   1. Go to the LDAP Group Permissions tab to map the LDAP groups to internal Identity Manager roles.

   2. Click + to add an LDAP group to the Groups list

   3. Select the roles that should be assigned to that LDAP group in the Roles list.
