Introduction Since the introduction of MDC support in OAM 11g, Customers have been asking for Automated Synchronization between Master and Clone OAM Environments. It is supported in OAM R2PS2. Thanks to the development team! Before R2PS2, It required T2P process to keep all the data centers in synch which is manual process or customer had to write crone jobs to run T2P process at frequent intervals. Please note that T2P process is still supported with R2PS2 if that is the...

Fellow A-Team blogger Andre Correa recently posted an article about integrating native IOS Apps with the OAM Mobile & Social SDK in order to do social identity federation within these apps. To expand on that post - and present a potential alternative to developers who wish to use Oracle's Mobile Application Framework - I'd like to draw attention to a post by UK-based Access Management guru Paul Toal. Paul is a Master Principal Sales Consultant and key member of the UK InfoSec...

OIM R2 PS2 delivers a long time expected functionality: access policy harvesting. This new feature adds more flexibility to OIM access policies usage. This is another post in the Oracle Identity Manager Academy from the Fusion Security Blog. for the entire post list click here. In order to understand what this new feature brings, let us first remind the past: in previous OIM releases it was not possible to associate reconciled accounts to access policies. The impact of this...

Introduction I've already posted an article about Social Federation with Mobile & Social (M&S) for web applications protected by Oracle Access Manager (OAM), showing users being authenticated against social network providers, like Google and Linkedin. My coworker Chris Johnson also blogged about using Mobile & Social in a native iOS application. In his post, user authentication happens against OAM identity store. In this post, we have both worlds. We're going to explore how...

Earlier I posted about the performance impact of last login tracking in Oracle Internet Directory (OID). I was asked, do the same performance concerns apply to Oracle Unified Directory (OUD)? Well, OUD also supports last login tracking, and enabling it will have some performance impact. However, OUD does last login tracking in a smarter way than OID does, so the performance impact of enabling it for OUD is potentially substantially less. OID stores the last login time to the...

Introduction Security systems, including OAM, reside in a dynamic environment where the parameters that affect system performance are ever changing. On top of that, access management Infrastructure like OAM serve as the front door or gate to every application/system in an organization. Therefore continuous monitoring of such key components is mandatory to ensure continuous success of not just your access and SSO solution but indeed your very applications themselves. Effective...

Since OAM 10g days, keeping track of Protected Resource that user wanted to access throughout custom authentication process has been a challenge. In OAM 10g, it was possible to create custom OBFormLoginCookie to overcome that challenge. With the introduction of Encrypted OAM_REQ cookie in OAM 11g, it is not feasible. That makes it difficult to do post Authentication operations or any customizations in Authentication process. OAM 11gR2 introduced a feature where you can...

Introduction Social Federation: a somewhat fancy name for a simple concept. We want to leverage identities in Social Network providers in our own applications. For example, granting access to either cloud or on-premise applications to end users using their Google identities. In this post we're going to take a close look at the necessary configuration in OAM M&S (Oracle Access Manager Mobile & Social) server to have Java Web applications leveraging Google and LinkedIn...

Overview There are times when you are in the midst of testing where you need to reset things back to the way they were; to be able to quickly restart your testing at from a previous point. This is technologically quite easy with current storage infrastructures supporting snapshot mechanisms. This is equally easy in those databases systems, like Oracle, that support advanced recovery capabilities or flashback mechanisms, analogous to storage snapshots. Thus technology is not a...
