Notes - Steps 13- 21 are only required if allowing remote access (through web interface) to SecureAuth0 (Web Admin)
- Step 22 is only required if utilizing Multi-Factor Authentication for remote access
|
13. In the Membership Connection Settings section, select the directory with which SecureAuth IdP will integrate for 2-Factor Authentication and assertion from the Data Store dropdown 14. Follow the distinct configuration steps for the specific data store in additional to the configuration steps on this page: SecureAuth advises configuring access to the SecureAuth0 realm with security best practices in mind. Recommendations are listed below, but it is the customer's responsibility to determine the best settings for their specific deployment. These recommendations do not constitute a guarantee of security. |
15. Restrict access to SecureAuth0 to a specific admin group: - In the corporate data store, create an admin user group comprised of only those members who will have access to the Web Admin
- In the User Groups (AD/LDAP) or Allowed Groups (SQL) field, enter the name of the admin group
- (AD/LDAP) In the User Group Check Type field, select Allow Access
- (AD/LDAP) Set the Groups Field field to the LDAP attribute that contains user group information, e.g. memberOf
|
|
This section is for LDAP data stores only; refer to the specific directory configuration guide for more information |
16. Map the SecureAuth IdP Property to the appropriate data store Field For example, Groups is located in the memberOf data store Field 17. If another directory is enabled in the Profile Connection Settings section and contains the Property, then change the Source from Default Provider 18. Check Writeable for a Property that will be changed in the data store by SecureAuth IdP For example, user account information (telephone number) or authentication mechanisms (knowledge-based questions, fingerprints) |
|
The Fields listed are only examples, as each data store is organized differently and may have different values for each Property |
