Summary:
Micro Focus offers a set of tools that allow customers to manage identities, govern access rights, authenticate user and offer multi factor authentication. Each of these tools offer dedicated user interfaces that follow the same look and feel. However, beside the look and feel, it is important to embed these tools into an SSO landscape. This is already realized for IDM and IG, but not for the Advanced Authentication Framework. As a result, customers like Schwarz IT request this integration.
Solution Description
It should be possible to enable SSO for at least the User and Helpdesk portal within AAF. As AAF already provides an IDP for WEB federation, it should be possible to implement a federation as well on the service provider side. It is suggested to use OIDC as Federation Protocol.
In addition, it has to be ensured that external systems like Micro Focus Access Manager can be used as IDP.
