I want to extend IdentityServer 3 with a 'admin' part where users can manage things like users, clients, etc. This part should be secured by the same ID server implementation (same app in IIS). Do I have to build a separate app or can I extend the same ID server solution? How do I configure the OWIN start up then? When I have
app.Map("/Identity"....)
how do I add:
app.UseOpenIdConnectAuthentication
This results in an 'external' login provider, but that is not what I want. I also tried to add:
app.Map("/admin", config => config.UseOpenIdConnectAuthentiaction())
But that does not work as well, so:
How to have ID server and a client combined in one Solution?
Please help.
Have a look at IdentityManager provided by developers of IdentityServer. This will get you up & running very quickly.
Security Model
The security model can be configured to only allow users running on the same machine or can be configured to use any Katana based authentication middleware to authenticate users.
Hosting Options
IdentityManager is hosted as OWIN middleware. It can be configured with the UseIdentityManager extension method for Katana
This is how you "Get started"

I am Using Sharepoint2019 On-Premise
I am looking to use separate .aspx page for authenticate users for Sharepoint2019,
I tried the Form-Based Authentication(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/sharepoint-server-2010/ee806890(v=office.14)) and it works for authentication but the user profiles are not getting synced from our current Active Directory, so i would like the go back to the windows authentication but instead of pop-up should i would like the .aspx
I want to Use this page for Windows Authentication :-
I Do Not Want This SIgn in pop-up
can any one please guide me to accomplish this task.
One suggestion to look at would be to use AD FS and Web Application Proxy. This solution would require you to configure Kerberos Constrained Delegation for the SharePoint Web Application. In addition, the WAP server(s) need to be joined to Active Directory. Finally, on AD FS you would set up a non-claims aware relying party.
DNS for your Web Application would be pointed at the WAP server (or load balancer routing to WAP) and users would log in there using an FBA experience but still using Windows auth on the back end.
You need an external system that can pass non-Windows auth and translate it to Windows auth. AD FS + WAP is one example of doing so. Because the back end is still Windows auth, other services that leverage Windows auth will continue to work without any changes to your farm.
See here :- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/153678/how-to-use-custom-login-page-aspx-as-link-fba-for.html
See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-fs/operations/create-a-non-claims-aware-relying-party-trust on how to create a non-claims aware relying party.
For TLS setup, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-R2-and-2012/dn383662(v=ws.11).
it is quite tricky, as Microsoft Designed in that for the windows authentication, but any how if you can use the Form Base Authentication.
Here is the Link where Microsoft posted how to implement the Form Based Authentication.
Configure forms-based authentication for a claims-based Web application
I'm trying to create a web application that uses a Web API to perform database operations. I've created a project at work that uses Windows Authentication on the API Level. Since this is an intranet web application I don't need to implement a login mechanism on the web application. However, this project I'm working on can be private or public web application and I would like to implement a login mechanism but I would like to be able to specify what type of security to use i.e. LDAP, generic username/password, Google, Facebook, etc.
The question is, what is the best strategy to implement security on both Web Application and Web Api. For Web Api, I could probably implement some soft of token mechanism like other Apis. But not sure if there are other ways.
Is Sign-in option like Google, Facebook, etc done on the Front-end side? or can I Implement it on the WebApi side?
The best practice on this case,
Web Application: client certificate authentication or username/password
Web API: JWT
or if the target company uses G suits with the company domain, Google will be okay.
You can set a filter using domain name of the email address.
I am trying to restrict access to my azure web app only to one of my web jobs.
Can I use IP Restrictions to achieve this.
To achieve this type of restriction, IP Based restriction will not be of use for the following reasons:
There might be other applications(owned by you, in case of standard above plans, or other customer apps in case of free/shared planes) that will be running on the same server and those also will have access to your web app.
There is no fixed outbound IP for your web job as it might be moving to different instances (in case you have multiple instances in your app)
A quick and easy solution for your original problem is:
Implement either BASIC Auth (username/pwd) or Bearer token Auth on your web app side.
From your web Job (in the Invoke-WebRequest) pass either the username/pwd or auth token based on whichever auth mode you choose.
Here are a few links that discuss implementing Basic Auth for Azure Web Apps and how to call such an app via PowerShell:
How to use the script (Invoke-WebRequest -Uri) to pass a parameter to your page
Use Invoke-WebRequest with a username and password for basic authentication on the GitHub API
How to use a C# code in the Web App to authenticate the request parameter
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/datacatalog/authenticate-a-client-app
Since with basic authentication, credentials are passed in plaintext an can be easily decoded, we recommend that the web job calls the WebApp URL over SSL. Also, Basic Auth is one of the simplest authentication mechanisms, there are other more complex authentication schemes available too that you might want to explore.
I would like to secure my Azure WebApi with 3rd party providers (FB, G+... I basically just need a valid email). Was looking at Auth0 and seems like it will do the thing paired with Jwt middleware in web api project, but I was wondering if the same can be done using Azure only.
Azure Web App authentication confused me a bit - it does not seem to give anything to my Asp.Net web app. I still have to configure all the middleware in Startup.cs and the app still works fine if I completely turn authentication off.
I could do the same thing Auth0 does - issue my own Jwt tokens based on access tokens from FB or G+ - but would like to avoid that.
Could you please point me to the right direction?
You have a couple options:
App Service Authentication
Configure the authentication via middle ware
App Service Authentication
The App Service Authentication does not require any code inside your application because your App Service has a gateway that inspects request for authorization. Depending on the setting you can either secure the entire site or secure individual resources (by using the [Authorize] attribute on the endpoint in MVC/WebAPI).
With the latest release you can control authorization on a site by site basis including manually triggering the sign in by navigating the user to the <yoursiteurl>/.auth/login/<provider>. By defualt the token store is enabled so you can make a request to <yoursiteurl>/.auth/me and get back information from the provider.
Middleware Authentication
This is the default way authorization happens in the Single Page ASP.NET Template. The middleware authentication uses OAuth/OpenId to secure the resources. This option does it at the application layer instead of at the gateway. If you are using ASP.NET Identity (from the single page project template) the email from the persons log in will automatically be stored in the Users table. The tutorial in the link above gives lots of details on how to get it working.
Make sure you use the [Authorize] attribute to trigger the Authorization in either case.
Hope that helps you get started in the right direction.
I was trying to register an Application Login Module in Websphere but I don´t find any easy example in web.
There are a lot of IBM documents, but too much complex, and I can´t figure out how to register an Application Login Module.
I already have success with a System Login Module bounded to WEB_INBOUND, it works, but affects all my system. I want a Login Module to serve only my applications web, with JAAS authentication.
I´ve tried to bound a login module to existing WSLogin but it doesn´t seems to be working.
Any help ?

You need to setup security domains to get the separation you are looking for wrt to the login configurations. The security framework uses the WEB_INBOUND login configuration to authenticate the user for all web applications irrespective of adminConsole or user applications. When you create a security domain and customize the WEB_INBOUND configuration at the server/cluster domain level, it will be used for all the user web applications deployed in those processes. You need to setup the multidomain in a cell topology and assign the domain to the server/cluster where you applications are deployed.
Once you setup the domains, the WEB_INBOUND configuration at the server/cluster domain will be used by the user applications hosted in that server/cluster while the WEB_INBOUND configuration at the admin/global domain will be used for the adminConsole application at the Deploymener Management process where it is deployed.
The application JAAS login configurations are meant to be used by the applications directly. One can create an application login configuration and programmatically use it in the application to perform direct login -
LoginContext lc = new LoginContext("myAppLoginCfg1", callBackHandler);
I asked around and this is the answer that comes from the owner of container security:
The WEB_INBOUND is a JAAS system login that is always configured by default. However, you can specify your own JAAS application login or customize the existing WEB_INBOUND system login. If you want only one application to use a different JAAS login from all your other applications, you can use a security domain that has those different security configurations. The only catch is that application server has to be in a separate server from the other apps. That way, you can map your security domain to that server.
Here's an info center article about security domains:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/#!/SS7K4U_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.zseries.doc/ae/tsec_sec_domains_config.html?cp=SS7K4U_8.5.5%2F1-8-2-33-1
And one on application logins:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/#!/SS7K4U_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.zseries.doc/ae/rsec_logmod.html?cp=SS7K4U_8.5.5
And system logins:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/#!/SS7K4U_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.zseries.doc/ae/usec_sysjaas.html
And here is a much more practical answer that comes from the security dev lead:
So an additional question is - why would you want to do that? Do you want to do anything specific for just one app during login that you do not want for other app logins? (I would think so) You can get the app name in your custom login module and can use that to provide your own app based login requirement in your login module (or skip it) if needed.
Me: Ya, this is what I would do. You can also implement this based on what is in the request. I did one where it would request a SAML token from an STS and put it on the runas subject if I could tell that the request came from WebSeal (and not if it didn't).
If what you need to do for the 'app-specific' case requires skipping what is done in ltpaLoginModule and wsMapDefaultInboundLoginModule (that should run for the other apps), you can't really do that. However, you can modify their behavior.
Read through the task I've given a link to below. Yes, I understand it is a WS-Security task, but its about using APIs. You'll get what I'm talking about if you read closely, particularly the 3rd ("When a caller...") and 5th ("To use a..") paragraphs. The parts that you should be concerned about in the code is the WSCREDENTIAL* stuff.
