Getting to Know Your Customers: the Emergence of CIAM Abstract
Getting To Know Your Customers: The Emergence of CIAM Abstract Ten years ago identity and access management (IAM) solutions were rarely deployed beyond the company firewall, providing permissions and access rights to enterprise resources to employees and contractors. When available, the management of customer and partner access to a generally limited set of resources was often poorly coordinated. Today, however, a very different social, technology and business environment demands that enterprises make their customers’ online experience as sleek and personalized as possible. And to do this, enterprises are embracing a new breed of consumer or customer identity and access management (CIAM) solutions from their IAM vendors. The investment and commitment to CIAM are being driven by an ever- increasing sophistication of customer expectation in terms of a ‘joined up’ user experience and real-time availability of relevant resources accessible anywhere, anytime and from any device. Alongside the need to protect the ‘disappearing perimeter’ with adequate security is measured the need to address competitive advantage and maintain customer loyalty. Boosting transparency between marketing and lines of business has the potential to deepen the customer relationship. In this report, we investigate this emerging trend, what the major players are doing, and what should be the next steps for TechVision Research clients. This report covers: • The CIAM value proposition and business rationale for the enterprise • Getting the balance right between enterprise IAM (EIAM) and CIAM • TechVision Research’s shortlist of CIAM vendors • Eight steps an enterprise should take to best leverage CIAM Author: David Goodman, D.

On the Security of Single Sign-On
On the Security of Single Sign-On Vladislav Mladenov (Place of birth: Pleven/Bulgaria) [email protected] 30th June 2017 Ruhr-University Bochum Horst G¨ortz Institute for IT-Security Chair for Network and Data Security Dissertation zur Erlangung des Grades eines Doktor-Ingenieurs der Fakult¨atf¨urElektrotechnik und Informationstechnik an der Ruhr-Universit¨atBochum First Supervisor: Prof. Dr. rer. nat. J¨org Schwenk Second Supervisor: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Felix Freiling www.nds.rub.de Abstract Single Sign-On (SSO) is a concept of delegated authentication, where an End- User authenticates only once at a central entity called Identity Provider (IdP) and afterwards logs in at multiple Service Providers (SPs) without reauthenti- cation. For this purpose, the IdP issues an authentication token, which is sent to the SP and must be verified. There exist different SSO protocols, which are implemented as open source libraries or integrated in commercial products. Google, Facebook, Microsoft and PayPal belong to the most popular SSO IdPs. This thesis provides a comprehensive security evaluation of the most popular and widely deployed SSO protocols: OpenID Connect, OpenID, and SAML. A starting point for this research is the development of a new concept called malicious IdP, where a maliciously acting IdP is used to attack SSO. Generic attack classes are developed and categorized according to the requirements, goals, and impact. These attack classes are adapted to different SSO proto- cols, which lead to the discovery of security critical vulnerabilities in Software- as-a-Service Cloud Providers, eCommerce products, web-based news portals, Content-Management systems, and open source implementations. -
