Authentication

Why?

We will use different tools which require authentication.
wiki, chat, wlan, ssh logins, …

One identity source would be nice.
Access rights could be granted to groups.

Otherwise we need to create user accounts in every system, manage rolls in every system, …

Username/Password is outdated. MFA solutions provide more security.

Protocols

  • ldap is supported in a lot of software
  • wlan 802.1x is using radius
  • OTP solutions are often based on Radius
  • kerberos is maybe more secure
  • SAML is often use for cloud services
  • TACACS is used for switches an other network devices
