Course Overview
This fundamental class teaches the basic administration of Access Management, starting with the installation and configuration. This role based training approaches this from the perspective of a team of security administrators building a solution from scratch, implementing an innerweb and access to and from the internet via a series of proxy services. It explores a number of security scenarios through encrypted technologies, certificate management, authentication, and authorization. Beginning with SSL and x.509 and moving on to OAuth using OpenID Connect. Along the way learning how important it is to protect the network using Risk Services to stealthily determine the risk of each login. We learn data injection, auto form fill, multi-homing, role-based decision making, along with a host of other features of the software. It will even go through the process of personalization (or institutionalization) of the user interfaces providing the kind of solution demanded by today's companies and institutions.
