Saml ecp, azure ad IDP supports?

does the azure AD IDP support SAML ECP?

Hi,
Did you talk about Shibboleth Identity Provider?
We could use a SAML 2.0 compliant SP-Lite profile based Identity Provider as their preferred Security Token Service (STS) / identity provider.

Or you could refer to this article:

Maybe it will be helpful.

  • Windows 7 and windows8.1 Azure VM which supports visual studio professional

    I tried to find azure vm which supports Visual Studio professional. 
    without Windows Server 2012, there is no visual studio professional for windows 7 or windows 8.1. 
    if we want it, we should install it manually?

    Dave - Thanks for the prompt response.  I've built this application using MFC in Static Library, x86 configuration.
    OK, that would eliminate the run-time DLLs.
      I've not heard of Depends.exe but found and downloaded it.  Ran it on both Win 7 and 8.1 with similar results shown some missing dlls (e.g.: API-MS-WIN-CORE-PRIVATEPROFILE-L1-1-1.DLL).  I've never heard of these. 
    If they're the same on both, I wouldn't worry about them, it's
    differences that would be relevant.
    On the face of things, there's nothing immediately apparent that would
    prevent your program from running, so is there any error reported
    (message box, or event viewer) when you try to run your application on
    Win8.1?
    Have you tried debugging it on 8.1?

  • OIF 11g as IDP supporting multiple SPs

    Hello,
    I have OIF 11g setup as an IDP using OAM/OID as the authentication engine. I have configured it following the steps provided in section 3.2.3.2 of the doc here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/oim.1111/e13400/deployment.htm#BABCAABE. There is an OAM policy protecting fed/user/authnoam.
    I currently have 2 SPs: sp1 and sp2. Can I have different OAM policies for each SP? For example, I want to allow only users in the ldap group sp1_group access to sp1 and users in ldap group sp2_group access to sp2. The issue is that when an authentication request is sent from any SP, it gets sent to fed/user/authnoam, which is protected by one OAM policy.

    I had this requirement too in my previous project where for one SP, we want to authenticate aganist consumer data store and another SP, aganist customer. If i remember correctly, the product doesn't support that. Not sure about 11g R2 though.

  • Does Azure Media services support storing images?

    Hi,
    We are planning to store the media files in azure cloud, initially we planned to use the Azure blob storage and after deeply investigating we found the Azure media services has some outstanding capabilities  like streaming offline viewing etc. compared
    to azure blob storage.
    So here my question, does this supports storing the images as well?Please confirm this ASAP.
    I read the some article about media services, there it has been given like below, but Just i want to confirmation about this.
    Supported file types in Azure Media Services
    Various video, audio, and image file types can be uploaded to a Media Services account, with there being no restriction on the types or formats of files that you can upload using the Media Services SDK. However, the Azure Management portal restricts uploads
    to the formats that are supported by the Azure Media Encoder. These import formats include MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and Windows Media Video encoded video, MP3, WAVE, and Windows Media Audio encoded audio, and BMP, JPEG, and PNG encoded images. The Azure Media
    Encoder can export data as Windows Media Video, Windows Media Audio, MP4, and Smooth Streaming File Format.
    For more information about the supported file formats see "Supported input formats" and "Introduction to encoding."
    Thanks,
    Kiran

    Hi John,
    One more Question here.
    As of now we are planning to store and retrieve only the images and audio files with media services, so can I avoid encoding and packaging and use it?Will it work?
    Can I access the  images and audio files without encoding and packaging?
    In future, we are are planning to add the videos as well.
    I think encoding and packaging will come into picture when streaming the videos.
    Thanks,
    Kiran

  • Remove "sslVersion=3L," from Sample R Code Invoking a Web Service, as a Result of Azure Disabling SSLV3 Support

    Hello everyone,
    As part of January security updates, Azure has disabled SSLV3.0 support by default for Azure Cloud Services customers, effective 01/19/2015. For details, please check
    Security Bulletin.
    As a result, the sample code to invoke a web service will not work if SSL version 3.0 is specified. For example, R sample code has
    # Accept SSL certificates issued by public Certificate Authorities
    options(RCurlOptions = list(sslVersion=3L, cainfo = system.file("CurlSSL", "cacert.pem", package = "RCurl")))
    You will hit errors as below
    * Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache
    *   Trying 191.238.225.148...
    * Connected to ussouthcentral.services.azureml.net (191.238.225.148) port 443 (#0)
    * successfully set certificate verify locations:
    *   CAfile: C:/Program Files/R/R-3.1.2/library/RCurl/CurlSSL/cacert.pem
      CApath: none
    * Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to ussouthcentral.services.azureml.net:443
    * Closing connection 0
    Error in function (type, msg, asError = TRUE)  :
      Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to ussouthcentral.services.azureml.net:443
    The mitigation is
    Upgrade R client's RCurl package to the latest version (in RStudio, this can be done using Tools -> Check for package updates)
    In the sample code, remove sslVersion=3L.
    AzureML team is aware of this issue and an update to the sample code is scheduled soon.
    Thanks,
    Jing

    Or, if you want to be explicit, set sslVersion = 1, that also works,
    Thanks,
    Jing

  • Multiple IdP support for HCP Portal

    Hi all,
    I'm having lots of fun developing on the HCP and really love it!
    Now I need to integrate multiple IdPs for the same account.
    I know this can be specified using the url structure:
    https://<app name>.hana.ondemand.com/index.jsp?saml2idp=<idp name>
    I also plan to use the HCP Portal, so my question would be:
    Can I use the url parameter above (saml2idp) also for HCP Portal?
    Thanks, regards

  • Does Azure supports switching between databases?

    We have 1000s of Stored Procedures, Views & Functions with 'SELECT * FROM DB1.dbo.TBL1' we constantly switch between databases (about 300 of them) within a single instance, running real-time on-line business. These are back-end SQL queries that
    we normally run from one of the ADMIN databases with in the same instance.
    I tried using 'USE <database name>' and realized that it does not support and then tried using <db name>.dbo.<tbl name> that also does not work.
    If these 2 functions does not support within Azure we simply cannot use the environment to support our business databases, could someone please confirm this - thanks.

    Hello,
    Yes. Cross database references or four-part names are not supported by SQL Azure.
    Windows Azure SQL Database supports the three-part name database_name.[schema_name].object_name when:
    • the database_name is the current database
    • the database_name is tempdb and the object_name starts with #.

  • Using oauth2 flows of Azure Acite Directory (AAD), in API

    documentation on the API feature of azure makes strongly hints that oauth2 is supported. But, that's like saying saml is supported (without specifying the profile of SAML2 or SAML1.1). The hint is far too vague to be actionable. What matters to me is that
    the oauth2 features of Active AD's IDP/STS are supported (and that the JWT tokens and keying properties of AAD can be consumed by API handlers).
    Does anyone having any interworking stories to tell, with AAD? Any samples, blog posts etc?
    Its seems REALLY useful to have 1) mobile sites consume AAD and 2)( API sites similarly consume tokens - whose audiences that cover both the mobile and API endpoints. But, is it reality?

    Hi Peter,
    Firstly, as I know, Azure AD is supported SAML2.0. And we can use and configure SAML2.0 in Azure AD (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn641269.aspx ).And
    Azure AD supported the JWT and SAML2.0 token formation. From the official document(http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/api-management-howto-oauth2/
    ), we can set the OAuth2.0 with Azure AD in API Management service. You can try to configure the AZURE AD as a Authorization Server in API management service.

  • Issues to Configure SAML ,I tried alot but its not working ,Below Given instruction how to configure SAML

    SAML Overview
    Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an XML-based standard for exchanging authentication and
    authorization data between security domains, that is, between an identity provider (a producer of assertions)
    and a service provider (a consumer of assertions). SAML is a product of the OASIS Security Services
    Technical Committee.
    SAML is relevant to those customers who already have a SAML implementation in use with other systems in
    their organization. Therefore, it is recommended you engage your technology team that has a working 
    knowledge of SAML and provide this document to them for their review.
    Key Roles
    • Identity Provider (IDP): The system in authority that provides the user information
    • Service Provider (SP): The system that trusts the asserting party’s information, and uses the data to
    provide an application to the user.
    • Subject: The user and their identity that is involved in the transaction.
    Note! In our context, Learning Maestro is the SP, the IDP is customer-specific, and the Subject is the user
    who is logged in.

    Implementing SAML 2.0
    • SumTotal LMS supports only SAML 2.0 Standards.
    • We support only IDP-initiated SAML authentication.
    • The SAML Response should be signed and base64 Encoded.
    • UserName should be passed in NameID element under Assertion\Subject Keys.
    • We use the timestamp provided in IssueInstant attribute of SAML Assertion to find the valid period
    (+/- 5 min ) for the SAML Response.
    • Currently, we do not support signed or encrypted assertions.
    • Deep linked URLs can be passed through an additional URL parameter of “OriginalURL.”

    When Learning Maestro is Accessed from a Portal
    1. The user logs into the customer portal.
    2. The user clicks on a link to the LMS from the customer’s portal.
    3. The link points to an IDP page.
    4. The IDP pages posts an HTTP Request to Learning Maestro
    5. The request is an < ... > message.

    Configuring SAML 2.0
    SumTotal Maestro supports SAML 2.0 for the “Identity Provider Initialized SSO” protocol.
    To configure your Maestro domain to accept SAML 2.0 Assertions, the following steps must be taken:
    1. Confirm that Usernames are in sync
    2. Provide an X.509 Certificate to SumTotal Systems (SHA1 Hashed)
    SumTotal Systems will configure your environment with the X.509 cert you provide.
    3. Point your call to the following URL:
    https://gm1.geolearning.com/geonext/<your_domain>/saml.geo
    After authenticating to your Identity Provider, the provider will pass a user into Maestro IF:
    • The user has a username matching an existing Maestro username
    • The x509 certificates match on both sides
    If authentication fails, the user will be presented with a failure page.
    Assertions
    An optional assertion is available to specify the URL a user will be sent if there is an authentication error.
    ErrorRedirectURL Assertion
    • If ‘ErrorRedirectURL’ is not specified and an authentication error or other security exception 
    occurs it will redirect the user to the default secerror.geo page as it does today
    • If a value (URL) is specified for ‘ErrorRedirectURL’ and there is an authentication error the user 
    will be redirected to the URL specified

    FAQs
    Question Answer
    What .NET library are we using? SumTotal uses “Componentspace” net SAML 2.0 library
    Can users still log in via the login page? Yes. The SAML target page is different than the login page.
    Can we deep link into the LMS through 
    the SAML 2.0 authentication workflow?
    Can I get rid of the Logout button?
    What is the Session timeout setting? Session Hard Life and Idle Life settings can be configured in 
    What is the unique ID for SAML? The “username” field.
    Yes. “Deep Link Target” (target or original URL parameter) is 
    accepted. If none is provided, then it will default to the default 
    landing page as configured in Maestro.
    Yes, When using SAML, the logout button still exists 
    intentionally in the navigation but can be disabled in the 
    “configure Navigation” options.
    the security section of the administration interface of Maestro.
    What is the failure page if
    Authentication fails?
    If the authentication fails, by default an intentionally simple error
    is presented to the user stating “Authentication Failure”.
    For security purposes, no further information regarding the 
    specifics of the failure are defined to the user.
    An optional ErrorRedirectURL assertion can be used.
    What URL do we point to? https://gm1.geolearning.com/geonext/<your_domain>/saml.geo

  • How to add description of a column of a table in SQL Azure

    Hi
    I have some tables in my application database where there are descriptions added against certain columns. Needless to say they were done by using sp_addextendedproperty.

    Hence I am not able to figure out how to add descriptions to those columns.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

  • Is it possible to use both an ILB and an ELB (listening on the same port) in the same Azure cloud service?

    I'm building a test Lync deployment on Azure; yes, I know this is not supported, hence "test".
    Lync Front-End servers expose two set of web services, one for internal users and one for external ones; they listen on different ports (443 and 4443) on the same servers; when external services are published, you need a reverse proxy or a port forwarding
    in order to map port 443 of a public IP address to port 4443 of the Front-End server(s). When you have multiple Front-End servers in a pool, you also need to load-balance them.
    So, a typical Lync deployment looks like this:
           Internal users
                     |
                   443
                      |
              Internal LB
            192.168.0.20
            443         443
              |               |
       Lync FE 1     Lync FE 2
    192.168.0.21 192.168.0.22
              |               |
          4443        4443
              External LB
           Public IP Address
                     |
                  443
                     |
           External Users
    This should be easily replicated in Azure, as it supports both external load balancing and internal load balancing. They are even supported together in the same cloud service, so this configuration should be easy. However, it looks like "should"
    is the keyword here.
    After creating the external load balanced endpoint (which listens on external port 443 and forwards to port 4443 on the servers), I'm trying to create an internal load balancer and add internal endpoints to is; however, while the ILB can be created successfully,
    adding an internal endpoint listening on port 443 and forwarding to port 443 on the servers fails miserably, with an error stating that port 443 is already in use by another endpoint:
    Update-AzureVM : BadRequest : Port 443 is already in use by one of the endpoints in this deployment. Ensure that the port numbers are unique across endpoints within a deployment.
    For reference, my commands are:
    Add-AzureInternalLoadBalancer -InternalLoadBalancerName "LyncILB" -ServiceName "LyncFrontEnd" -SubnetName "LabSubnet" -StaticVNetIPAddress 192.168.0.20
    (This completes successfully)
    Get-AzureVM LYNCFE1 | Add-AzureEndpoint -Name "Https-Int" -Protocol "tcp" -LocalPort 443 -PublicPort 443 -LBSetName "HttpsIntLB" -DefaultProbe -InternalLoadBalancerName "LyncILB"
    (This fails)
    The existing external endpoint is configured as such:
    Get-AzureVM LYNCFE1 | get-azureendpoint
    LBSetName : HttpsExtLB
    LocalPort : 4443
    Name : HTTPS-Ext
    Port : 443
    Protocol : tcp
    Vip :
    ProbePath :
    ProbePort : 4443
    ProbeProtocol : tcp
    ProbeIntervalInSeconds : 15
    ProbeTimeoutInSeconds : 31
    EnableDirectServerReturn : False
    Acl : {}
    InternalLoadBalancerName :
    IdleTimeoutInMinutes :
    LoadBalancerDistribution :
    The error doesn't even make a lot of sense; the external load balancer listens on a public IP address, while the internal load balancer listens on a private IP address in the internal network; there
    shouldn't be any conflict here... however it looks like there is one instead.
    Why doesn't this work? Am I doing something wrong, or is Azure networking just being silly as usual again?

    Hello Massimo Pascucci,
    The issue that you are facing when creating an endpoint with internal loadbalancer is the limitation of not allowing same ports to be listening under a single cloud service. This reason for this is that there is a limitation of only one private IP (Also
    known as the Internal load balanced IP) per cloud service.
    There is also a limitation on the Internal load balancer more than one port to be published per load balancer:

  • What are Azure limitations for Websockets in Cloud Services (web and worker role)?

    A WebSocket Server should be built on Azure platform with OnPrem connections and have questions regarding limitations for Websockets in Azure Cloud Services - web and worker roles.
    Websockets can be configured for Web Sites and limitations are understood, but Azure Websites is not an option. 
    Nevertheless it is planned to run a web service (without UI - no web site) as a Cloud service which has secure websocket (WSS) connections to OnPrem machines. Websocket protocol is enabled for IIS8 on Cloud services web and worker roles. Azure Service Bus Relay
    is not an option.
    Questions:
    1) Are Websockets supported for Azure Cloud services web and worker roles? we assume yes
    2) What are potential limitations from Azure side to support concurrent Websocket connections? We are aware that CPU, memory etc are limitations, but are there additional limitations from MS Azure side? 
     

    Hi,
    As I know, azure cloud service web and worker role support Websockets, users can connect to the role via the special endpoint, if we use Azure cloud service, I think we can monitor the metrics such as CPU, memory, etc... and scale our cloud service via these
    metrics to keep the websockets working, refer to
    http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/cloud-services-how-to-scale/ for more information about how to scale a cloud service.
    Regards
