About this guide One Identity Manager application roles Granting One Identity Manager schema permissions through permissions groups Managing permissions to program functions One Identity Manager authentication modules OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect authentication Multi-factor authentication in One Identity Manager Granular permissions for the SQL Server and database Installing One Identity Redistributable Secure Token Server Preventing blind SQL injection Program functions for starting the One Identity Manager tools Minimum access levels of One Identity Manager tools

Active Directory user account (manual input)

NOTE: This authentication module is available if the Active Directory Module is installed.

Credentials

Login name and password for registering with Active Directory. You do not have to enter the domain.

Prerequisites

  • The identity exists in the One Identity Manager database.

  • The Active Directory user account exists in the One Identity Manager database and the identity is entered in the user account's main data.

  • Domains permitted for login are entered in the TargetSystem | ADS | AuthenticationDomains configuration parameter.

  • The configuration data for dynamically determining the system user is defined in the application. Thus, an identity can, for example, be assigned a system user dynamically depending on their department membership.

Set as default

No

Single sign-on

No

Front-end login allowed

Yes

Web Portal login allowed

Yes

Remarks

The user‘s identity is determined from a predefined list of permitted Active Directory domains. The corresponding user account and identity are determined in the One Identity Manager database, which the user account is assigned to.

If an identity has a main identity or several subidentities, the QER | Person | MasterIdentity | UseMasterForAuthentication configuration parameter controls which identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is set, the identity’s main identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is not set, the identity’s subidentity is used for authentication.

NOTE: Identities that are classified as a security risk are no longer be able to log in to One Identity Manager. To allow login, set the QER | Person | AllowLoginWithSecurityIncident configuration parameter.

The application configuration data is used to find a system user, which is automatically assigned to the identity. The user interface and permissions are loaded through the system user that is dynamically assigned to the logged in identity.

Data modifications are attributed to the current user account.

Active Directory user account (manual input/role-based)

NOTE: This authentication module is available if the Active Directory Module is installed.

Credentials

Login name and password for registering with Active Directory. You do not have to enter the domain.

Prerequisites

  • The identity exists in the One Identity Manager database.

  • The identity is assigned at least one application role.

  • The Active Directory user account exists in the One Identity Manager database and the identity is entered in the user account's main data.

  • Domains permitted for login are entered in the TargetSystem | ADS | AuthenticationDomains configuration parameter.

Set as default

Yes

Single sign-on

No

Front-end login allowed

Yes

Web Portal login allowed

Yes

Remarks

The user‘s identity is determined from a predefined list of permitted Active Directory domains. The corresponding user account and identity are determined in the One Identity Manager database, which the user account is assigned to.

If an identity has a main identity or several subidentities, the QER | Person | MasterIdentity | UseMasterForAuthentication configuration parameter controls which identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is set, the identity’s main identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is not set, the identity’s subidentity is used for authentication.

NOTE: Identities that are classified as a security risk are no longer be able to log in to One Identity Manager. To allow login, set the QER | Person | AllowLoginWithSecurityIncident configuration parameter.

A dynamic system user is determined from the identity's application roles. The user interface and the permissions are loaded through this system user.

Data modifications are attributed to the current user account.

Active Directory user account (dynamic)

NOTE: This authentication module is available if the Active Directory Module is installed.

Credentials

The authentication module uses the Active Directory login data of the user currently logged in on the workstation.

Prerequisites

  • The identity exists in the One Identity Manager database.

  • The Active Directory user account exists in the One Identity Manager database and the identity is entered in the user account's main data.

  • The configuration data for dynamically determining the system user is defined in the application. Thus, an identity can, for example, be assigned a system user dynamically depending on their department membership.

Set as default

No

Single sign-on

Yes

Front-end login allowed

Yes

Web Portal login allowed

Yes

Remarks

The appropriate user account is found in the One Identity Manager database through the user's SID and the domain given at login. One Identity Manager finds the identity assigned to the user account.

If an identity has a main identity or several subidentities, the QER | Person | MasterIdentity | UseMasterForAuthentication configuration parameter controls which identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is set, the identity’s main identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is not set, the identity’s subidentity is used for authentication.

NOTE: Identities that are classified as a security risk are no longer be able to log in to One Identity Manager. To allow login, set the QER | Person | AllowLoginWithSecurityIncident configuration parameter.

The application configuration data is used to find a system user, which is automatically assigned to the identity. The user interface and permissions are loaded through the system user that is dynamically assigned to the logged in identity.

Data modifications are attributed to the current user account.

NOTE: If the Connect automatically option is set, authentication is no longer necessary for subsequent logins.

LDAP user account (role-based)

NOTE: This authentication module is available if the LDAP Module is installed.

Credentials

Login name, identifier, distinguished name or user ID of an LDAP user account.

LDAP user account's password.

Prerequisites

  • The identity exists in the One Identity Manager database.

  • The identity is assigned at least one application role.

  • The LDAP user account exists in the One Identity Manager database and the identity is entered in the user account's main data.

  • The configuration data for dynamically determining the system user is defined in the application. Thus, an identity can, for example, be assigned a system user dynamically depending on their department membership.

Set as default

No

Single sign-on

No

Front-end login allowed

Yes

Web Portal login allowed

Yes

Remarks

If you log in using a login name, identifier, or user ID, the corresponding user account is determined in the One Identity Manager database through the domain. The domains permitted for logging in are entered in the TargetSystem | LDAP | Authentication | RootDN configuration parameter and the TargetSystem | LDAP | AuthenticationV2 | RootDN configuration parameter. If log in uses a distinguished name, the LDAP user account is determined that uses this distinguished name. One Identity Manager finds the identity assigned to the LDAP user account.

If an identity has a main identity or several subidentities, the QER | Person | MasterIdentity | UseMasterForAuthentication configuration parameter controls which identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is set, the identity’s main identity is used for authentication.

  • If this configuration parameter is not set, the identity’s subidentity is used for authentication.

NOTE: Identities that are classified as a security risk are no longer be able to log in to One Identity Manager. To allow login, set the QER | Person | AllowLoginWithSecurityIncident configuration parameter.

A dynamic system user is determined from the identity's application roles. The user interface and the permissions are loaded through this system user.

Data modifications are attributed to the current user account.

In the Designer, modify the following configuration parameters to implement the authentication module.
