Authentication chains: Bravura Security Fabric as service provider

Many organizations which leverage federated authentication already have a solution in place. This could include:

  • Active Directory Federated Services

  • Microsoft Azure

  • Okta Single Sign-On

  • PingFederate

  • One of many other IdP solutions

Bravura Security Fabric can be configured to operate as a service provider, accepting third-party authentication assertions from a trusted IdP.

Configuring Bravura Security Fabric as a service provider requires the following administrator rights:

  • "Manage policies" to configure the SAML_SP custom Authentication chain, and the SAML_USERS User class.

  • "Manage external data store" to configure authentication chain logic using the hid_authchain_select table.

To configure Bravura Security Fabric as an SP:

  1. Prepare Bravura Security Fabric as an SP.

  2. Prepare the Identity Provider. The steps will be different for each vendor. Refer to your vendor's instructions to prepare your IdP.
