New Tutorials : Developing Single-Sign-On Solutions

posted Thursday, 2 October 2008
If you are interesting in writing single sign-on built into your solutions - there is a new article, Deploying OpenSSO on GlassFish, which walks you through the procedure of deploying OpenSSO on GlassFish.  If you don't know what is OpenSSO - it is Sun's open-source project for access management and federation, is a self-contained Java EE application that offers federation, access management, and Web-service security capabilities.   Note that there is still one day left if you want to ask the experts questions about SSO at the Ask The Experts : OpenSSO site.  You can see some of the questions being asked by visiting the OpenSSO Ask The Experts Q&A site.  If you are interested in knowing how to use OpenSSO there are a number of excellent resources that allow you to leverage NetBeans to make developing an OpenSSO solution easier to develop.  Here are four recently updated tutorials :
- Securing Applications with Identity Services (Part 1) : Authentication shows you how to configure OpenSSO so as to authenticate—by means of identity services—users who access protected resources.
- Securing Applications with Identity Services (Part 2) : Authorization  shows you how an example client application built with the NetBeans IDE, you learn how to further configure OpenSSO so as to allow authenticated users to perform tasks for which they have been authorized. Toward the end of this article is a troubleshooting section.
- Securing Applications with Identity Services (Part 3) : User Attributes goes through the task of obtaining the attributes of users whose tokens are passed in service calls. User attributes are also called profile attributes, This articledescribes how to fetch user attributes by means of the attribute service.
- Securing Applications with Identity Services (Part 4) : Single Sign-On and Logout -  you're shown how to achieve single sign-on (SSO) and logout with REST. Even though the procedures in this part start with authentication as a key part of the process, the emphasis is on SSO and logout.
