Hi Fabio
I sent this mail in the mailing list because I didn't really get much information from the jira tickets. Right now, I'm looking into add SSO capabilities to Syncope with Apache CXF Fediz IDP. I noticed that security in the console is done with wicket whereas in the core you use spring security. I noticed also the JIRA to probably use Apache Shiro which is very close to Spring Security. Where do you want to use Shiro - console and/or core? Apache CXF Fediz uses WS-Federation and SAML tokens for authentication which means the console gets a SAML token which contains the roles of the user. Due to the fact that the same roles are used for the core, this SAML token could be sent to the REST services. CXF JAX-RS supports SAML as described in [2]. WDYT? Thanks Oli [2] http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jax-rs-saml.html#JAX-RSSAML-SAMLassertionsinAuthorizationheader ________________________________ From: Fabio Martelli [fabio.marte...@gmail.com] Sent: 23 September 2013 10:09 To: user@syncope.apache.org Subject: Re: Release Maggiore and authentication modules Il 21/09/2013 13:56, Oliver Wulff ha scritto: Hi there I'm wondering what is meant with authentication modules in the Maggiore release? Is the idea to authenticate users accessing the syncope console and provide different options to authenticate? Hi Oliver, yes it is. Take a looka at [1] for more details. Best regards, F.
