How to import users from ADFS server to openam. I refered this doc
https://wikis.forgerock.org/confluence/display/openam/OpenAM+and+ADFS2+configuration
where they are saying users which are present on ADFS server must be present on openam.But if
I have thousand of users created on ADFS then can't create them manually on openam.so is
there any way to import the users from adfs server to openam either by accessing openam url
i.e through openam GUI or from java app.
Thanks,
OK - that document is confusing.
The difference between the IP and the SP is that only the IP has a credential store (AD in this case).
So the users only have to exist in AD.
If you look at the diagram, there is no credential store in Network A.
That's the whole point of federation.
Update:
Apologies - I seem to have confused some people.
That article refers to Account Linking but as per Using AD FS 2.0 for interoperable SAML 2.0-based federated Web Single Sign-On:
"AD FS 2.0 does not support the account linking scenario. Such a scenario can still be achieved in some ways with an appropriate incoming policy."
For federation, there's a good article here:
ForgeRock OpenAM 9.5.3 and AD FS 2.0 Integration : Part 1
but note that this looks at using OpenAM as a SAML 2.0 Identity Provider (IdP) and AD FS 2.0 as a SAML 2.0 Service Provider (SP).
There are three parts to this article - all in the blog.
Actually OpenAM does not store user accounts, they are stored in a so called Identity Repository (currently mostly used is an LDAP Directory Server, RDBMS has some issues yet).
You could retrieve the data from AD and import it in the Identity Repository.
However if you own ADFS and OpenAM why don't you let OpenAM consume the identities from AD by configuring it as an Identity Repository? You may search on the openam user alias ... plenty of explanations there.
About SP and IdP ... users are only AUTHENTICATED at the IdP but the user may exist under a different account on the SP side. Part of Federation/SAML is 'account linking' (not only single sign on) so identities (user accounts) can exist on SP and IdP side

For a 1 day project (call it a hackathon) we will be looking into replacing a custom built authentication and authorization system with one that we can buy.
After all, there are people who are better at this stuff than we are.
Non-cloud, hard requirement is on-premise installation possible
Can authenticate against Active Directory using LDAP
Can authenticate using SAML against ADFS
Management of users, roles etc without a directory is an option (most likely option to actually use during the hackathon)
Use open standards, SAML, OpenID, OAuth2
There are so many SAML-based products, but many are cloud-only, which unfortunately for us is not an option (reason: our products run on closed enterprise networks), so services like Okta are unfortunately not an option :(
The following list is quite complete, but doesn't give me any indication on how hard it is to install + get up and running in a few hours:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAML-based_products_and_services
Any suggestions for products to try?
My eye caught these ones:
miniOrange, Ping Identity, 10duke

I am using a Java stack for web apps.
How to build and run Shibboleth SAML IdP and SP using Docker container at GitHub repository provides the instruction on building a SAML-based Authentication/Authorization Provider using Shibboleth SAML IdP and OpenLDAP.
Shibboleth SAML IdP is responsible for identity federation.
OpenLDAP is responsible for identity authentication.
I have validated SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) provided by Docker-running Shibboleth SAML IdP (Identity Provider) and OpenLDAP for the following enterprise applications. In other words, I leveraged Docker-running Shibboleth SAML IdP and OpenLDAP to log in to the following enterprise applications successfully.
Microsoft Office 365
Google G Suite
Salesforce
Dropbox
Box
Amazon AWS
OpenStack
Citrix NetScaler
VMware vCloud Director
Oracle NetSuite
Another StackOverflow question Setting up a new Shibboleth IdP to work with an existing SAML SP discusses the SAML configuration between IdP and SP.
OpenLDAP is not OpenID Connect or OAuth 2.0
Have a look at identityserver4.
It's OpenID Connect / OAuth2 by design and it does have a plug-in SAML stack.
Or if you have a Windows server, use ADFS.
FOSS - Shibboleth or KeyCloak
The definition of 'closed' (network) might be interesting to examine. No access to outside at all, not on any port, noway/nohow? In that case, yes, you want an on-prem service. If there's gated access to outside, it's likely that many hosted identity services could work.
I am trying to migrate our companies Active Directory using LDAP to whitesource, however it does not officially support LDAP. I am trying to see if there is a way to install SAML on my LDAP which could enable whitesource to connect to my LDAP using SAML. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
You can not really use SAML to migrate user identity information from AD to some other identity silo.
However you could use ADFS (on top of AD) to act as an SAML IdP, WhiteSource as SAML SP and then perform SAML 'autofederation' to populate the identity silo on the SP side with some specific identity attributes.
I don't know whitesource though. (https://whitesource.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/WD/pages/547356829/WhiteSource+SAML+2.0+Integration ?)
Please note I am new to the applications I am mentioning so I might use the terminology incorrectly. I've added a few diagrams to explain myself as best I could.
I am trying to setup a web service authentication policy in APIMAN (which uses Keycloak internally)
So far I know the Identity Provider (OpenAM) I created in Keycloak is configured correctly since it is working on the Login page (see image 1 below)
I have also successfully used an access_token via Keycloak's OpenID API to access a web service; but only if the user credentials are in Keycloak (as oppossed to OpenAM) (see image 2)
What I'd like to achieve is to authenticate this web service client via Keycloak but using the Identity Provider's credentials, but I do not know how to do this or if it is even possible. (see image 3)
Please note I also tried User Federation with the LDAP behind OpenAM and it worked correctly, but I would like to know if there is a way to do it via OpenAM.
The way you used keycloak and openam is quite unusual, however if i understand correctlly your question, you want keycloak to redirect the webservice request to openam, not ldap,
You can either:
configure openam as a identity provider using saml:
Openam would be your source of identity, and keyclaok would be his clients, you can do this by configuring keycloak: identity provider -> saml IDP -> and here you will place openam metadata.
configure openam as OIDC provider:
In keycloak you go to identity providers -> create -> oidc v1 provider -> and you will place your openam info.
As i said, its can be done, but its not the way its suppossed to be, openam and keycloak are both Access management software, they both do exactly the same thing, in your configuration keycloak play a role of an API gateway, which is not exactly what keycloak should be doing, you can get get rid of either one of the solutions, both can provide you the same functionnalities (OIDC, OAuth2, SAML, LDAP, ...)
We have requirement of build .NET based plugin/component for enabling Authentication against multiple IDP providers like ADFS, Azure AD and Shibboleth based on DB configuration. i.e, depending on the configurable parameter the anonymous user will be authenticated against any one of the IDPs like ADFS, Azure AD or Shibboleth IDP.
Our application URL ("https://www.contoso.com/ProcessToken.aspx") will be registered as RP Identifier in all of the 3 providers.
We won't make any web.config changes for any of the providers.
At run time, User will access common page(Proesstoken.aspx) who needs to get redirected to the any of the Login page URLs at the provider (ADFS, Shibboleth, Azure) for Authentication based on User Organization. (For ex: User A to ADFS, User B to Shibboleth etc)
After Successful authentication at the IDPs the user needs to get redirected by the provider (ADFS/ Shibboleth/ Azure AD) to the RP Url registered.
In the redirected page (ProcessToken.aspx), we are planning to get the security token and decipher the claims required.
The main intention is to decouple authentication away from application logic and it should be extendable to other providers in future.
PS: Considered options like OWIN Authentication Middle Tier, .NET Component etc.
Need guidance on How and where to start.
Have a look at IdentityServer 3 which implements this multi-auth scenario or OWIN : ASP.NET MVC application with multiple authentication options.
The main point is that you use NuGet to download all the protocols you require and than use OWIN to pull them all in via app.use.
You can configure ADFS to have Claims Provider Trust with the other IDP's Owin will acknowledge the authentication. The difficult part will be reading the attributes from the tokens. ADFS under the covers in conjunction with the Owin framework use ws-federation, I have not figured out how to read the SAML.
What gets confusing is that at one time the answer was WIF but now that 4.51 has been released, WIF was moved into Owin. The documentation for a multi-tenant application is sketchy at best.
Has anyone succeeded in configuring ADFS2 to use Live Id (or Google, Yahoo etc) as a Claims provider, and if so where did you get the configuration instructions (can you share them please)
I have previously manged to do this with ACS in Azure to connect to Live Id and ADFS, but would like use ADFS as the "HUB"
AD FS 2.0 itself does not allow authentication against a custom authentication store: it can only authenticate Active Directory accounts. (See this answer of mine for the official documentation at this point.)
A solution is suggested in an answer to another StackOverflow question, although the wording is a bit misleading. If you read the actual blog post you see that they add an extra STS. AD FS 2.0 has a 'Claims Provider Trust' for that other STS, and redirects to it (if the 'home realm discovery' is set up correctly). That other STS then performs the authentication in whichever way it likes (e.g., using a Google or Live account), sends a token back to AD FS, which then runs its claim rules.
So in that solution it is not AD FS 2.0 authenticating against an alternative store, but redirecting to an STS which authenticates against that store.
This is possible with a custom STS you federate your ADFS with.
The idea is to build an STS which itself uses OAuth2 to authenticate users and then (optionally) performs its own Active directory queries to find a user with the same email address and reads roles from the AD. Then the custom Sts returns all the claims to your application.
As Marnix points out, a hybrid approach is possible where the credentials are provided on the adfs page rather than the identity provider page. This is rather difficult as it involves setting up the wstrustfeb2005 endpoint on your sts. I have a six part tutorial on how to do this:
http://netpl.blogspot.com/2011/08/adfs-20-quest-for-customizing-adfs-sign.html
Nonetheless, the latter approach is much more difficult while exposing a passive sts federated with the adfs should not take you long time.
