Subject: RE: [id-cloud] Gap Analysis Use Case 21: Mobile Customers' Identity Authentication Using a Cloud Provider
This discussion thread is to start an on-list discussion on the Gap
Analysis of individual use cases. Use case numbers refer to the use
cases as described in the 'OASIS Identity in the Cloud TC Use Cases'
Version 1.0, Working Draft 02, 15 December 2011, which is available at
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=44915&wg_abbrev=id-cloud The information below describes the current state. You are invited to
respond on-list to this thread with any comments, insights, additions, etc. All input will be gathered from the list and consolidated into the
next revision of the Gap Analysis document. --- Use Case 21: Mobile Customers' Identity Authentication Using a Cloud Provider Short description: Feature the need to have a standard secure authentication in order to use Cloud service
to authenticate mobile users
Relevant applicable standards: - SAML - OAuth - XSPA - WS-Trust - PMRM OAuth v 1.0a Gap summary: This standard provides no security mechanism to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the information passed between User to Service Provider and Service Provider to Consumer. Thus it exposes the id exchange information to eavesdrop and information theft by Man-in-the-Middle and Man-in-the Browser attacks. The protocol relies on SSL/TLS to provide security for information exchanged in motion. However, if mutual authentication is not enforced in the SSL/TLS handshake connection, SSL/TLS is also subject to eavesdrop and information theft by Man-in-the-Middle and Man-in-the Browser attacks.
. Terms used in OAuth and detailed gaps: * Service Provider: A web application that allows access via OAuth * User: Individual who has account with Service Provider * Consumer: A website or application that uses OAuth to access the Service Provider on behalf of the User * Consumer Key: A value used by the Consumer to identify itself to the Service Provider * Consumer Secret: A secret used b the Consumer to establish ownership of the Consumer Key * Request Token: A value used by the Consumer to obtain authorization from the User, and exchanged for an Access Token * Access Token: A value used by the Consumer to gain access to the Protected Resources on behalf of the User, instead of using the User’s Service Provider credential * Token Secret: A secret used by the Consumer to establish ownership of a given Token
