The Multi-Context Broker
Is your campus considering the implementation of multi-factor
authentication to bolster security beyond passwords? If so, and
you use Shibboleth single sign-on software, your job just got
easier.
The Internet2 community is releasing an extension to the
Shibboleth software that makes it easier for your organization
to support the increasing demand for multi-factor authentication
and simplify the user experience. This extension, the
Multi-Context Broker (MCB), significantly eases the integration
of multi-factor authentication technologies and the management
of InCommon Assurance Profiles.
Now with the MCB, organizations can easily support single
sign-on for multiple authentication methods. No custom code is
needed. Once configured, MCB automatically selects appropriate
authentication methods, based on service provider requests, user
certifications, user choice, and hierarchies of assurance
profiles like InCommon Bronze and Silver. The MCB currently
supports username/password, X.509 client certificates, and Duo
Security as authentication methods, and more methods are in the
works.
Further information about the Multi-Context Broker is available
from the InCommon Assurance wiki space: https://spaces.internet2.edu/x/BozFAg
