X.509 certs Mobility SSO scenario

[carlos_castrilln]

Hi all,

We would like to implement the Mobility SSO:

And we would like to know for anybody else who have implemented the scenario if this requirements:

"

• SSL Setup i.e. Web server should be setup to challenge incoming request for X509 certificate
• The required server certificates installed on the BI platform key store and Mobile Server key store

"

Have to be with enabling Tomcat SSL Client Authentication like is described, for example, in 4 Configuring SSL with Tomcat

Is quite complex to configure this SSO scenario, any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Carlos

Hi Carlos,

To need to setup your infrastructure to be able to provide X509 SSO, the links you mentioned are right.

Above Blog helps you to set up you Mobile Server for x509 based SSO

4 Configuring SSL with Tomcat

Above link tells you of how you should configure your Application Server to Ask the client for X509 certificate and setup SSL on tomcat

Also

SSO connections can only be imported on the Mobile App and cannot be created manually.

Once all the three are done you are ready to test the setup on Mobile. Choice of infrastructure is your organizations call of how the Mobile Server need to be exposed internall or externally.

It's not a complex setup but requires acquisition of certificates from third parties for setting up SSL on tomcat and infrastructure you choose to setup.

Let me know if it helps.
