Securing Specific Videos by Username and Password

We currently have an FMS instance setup and running on AWS. We provide for a number of clients and one has queried if it is possible to secure their videos in some way. We are using Strobe Media Player to stream the videos which I assume will effect the outcome. Could someone please provide me with some details on how best to achieve this.
Many thanks in advance,
Steven

One of the ways to autheticate users for specific video is to send the "user-name" & "password" as parameters to connect URI and authenticate using auth plugin. You can process the connect URI under "IFmsAuthEvent::E_PLAY:" case and depending upon the stream name (which can be obtained from F_STREAM_NAME ) you can authenticate the users.
Please refer the auth plugin manual for more information : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11a0d662434 -7fe8PluginAPI.html

i need to get USERNAME and PWD in my Soap header for consuming Webservice using SAP PI ,
Can be achieved by XSL Mapping or SOAP Axis Adapter. Search on SDN for further details as this has been discussed many a times on the forum.
should i need to get some certificates from client and deploy it or should we do anything in SAP PI and send to soap header or can hard code it and send to webservice, please help me in this t
First you need to confirm whether certificates are required or not. Might be the web service is using user id / password security (basic authorization).
How to use certificates in PI - Search on SAP Help, this has been explained in great details over there.

How-to access username and password protected Java EE Web services from ADF

The title of this post is exactly the same as this article by Frank Nimphius:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/1013/protectedws/access_protected_web_services_from_adf.htm
The article addresses the problem of securing web services using usernames and passwords, when those web services are accessed through a proxy or a data control. In the examples, the user names and passwords are specified, whether in the code or the definition of data controls. (SKING/SKING).
In a very common scenario, users login to reach a page, for example, A.jspx, which contains a button that calls a web service, for example displayDate. Suppose that user has logged in by username/pass of (AHUNOLD/AHUNOLD) and AHUNOLD has access to the service and the page. Is there any way to pass the logged in user name and password to the webservice ? Of course we can hard-code the username in the data control definition or proxy code, but this is just one of the thousands of users who have access to the service and the authentication is not dynamic this way.
Hope my question is clear. Wishing you all a great Christmas.
Farbod

Hi Frank, and happy new year.
Are you implying that it couldn't be done declaratively? What is your suggestion for this problem? You know the problem... As I described:
- I need to secure my web services, so when exposed, no one from inside network or the internet, can access the web service without proper permission
- The web services are shown as web controls on jspx pages. The user has logged in before reaching the page. It is irrelevant to ask him to enter user name and password again.
- I have user names, passwords and roles in Oracle Internet Directory (Identity Management). It provides some APIs and I can retrieve the usernames and attempt logging in programmically. But how can I get username and password from the session in ADF application?
I guess using SAML or certificate could be the solution, but I have a problem with SAML, described here:
Re: Webservices Security, SAML, and Identity Management (OID)

Securing LDAP username and password in Websphere

Hi all,
I am new to LDAP and WAS. I want to secure the username and password for my LDAP server. Right now i have two choices for using the username and password for the LDAP
1. i can put the username and password in a properties file.( but then it makes my application insecure....anybody can read it )
2. I can put them in a .java file and after compilation it would be converted to the class file.( but in this approach anyone who knows in which file it is residing can use a decompiler to read it)
I have seen one implementation for DB2 in which they make a datastore in the application server that holds the username and password for the DB2 server. I want to use same kind of facility for my application.
Can anyone help me with this...?

The error description is:

I found plenty out there and nothing directly correlates with this issue.

That’s not the case for me. It works in dev and the same id are used there.

Hi.
You say its a multiserver farm, do you have more than one web server then?
If thats the case, have you tried accessing the site on each server directly?

Extracting username and password from security header

Hey all,
I'm writing a BPEL process that invokes two secured web services. One of them authenticates using Username Token and the other has a authenticate method in which the username and password are supplied as Strings. I have successfully propagated the credentials from the BPEL process to the web service using Username Token by doing the following:
1) I secured my BPEL process
2) I imported oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd and from it created a variable of type Security
3) I added the security variable to the Header Variables for the BPEL process input
4) I added the security variable to the Input Header Variables for the web service's invoke operation
This worked fine. However, I need to be able to extract out the username and password and supply them as Strings to the authenticate method of the other web service. How can this be done? If it can't, what are some alternatives?
Environment:
JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Sri,
If I understand your steps correctly, I think the problem I'm having rests with the second step. I don't know how to get a hold of the username and password to assign to the local variables you mention. The BPEL process itself uses Username Token for authentication. These credentials need to be passed to the web services invoked within the BPEL process. If I assign the security header variable directly to the string output for the BPEL process, the string returned will be the complete XML security header, which includes the username and password. However, the security header variable itself doesn't expose the username and password directly. In other words, I can't expand the security header variable node in the dialog for editing the Assign operation and get to the username and password. I think one solution is to parse out the username and password from the complete XML security header using string operations (substring, index-within-string, etc). Also, regarding step 4, I'm not sure if passing the credentials in the header will work for this web service. I think the web service is expecting the credentials as parameters to its authenticate method.
Thanks,
Bill

Contact your college network support. The syntax for specifying your authentication may be different than you usually use when you are just connecting there locally.

Security issue: parameters username and password in the jbo:ApplicationModule

Hello,
in the <jbo:ApplicationModule> tag, you can give parameters for username and password, Then the .jsp connects to the DB via the username/password. Alternativly, You can provide this within the <Module>.properties file.
Now the question: Isn't this a security hole? I mean, is it under all circumstances impossible, that the source-code can be delivered by the web-server or that the byte-code from the servlet (compiled from .jsp) can be "restringed"?
Are there other ways to protect the credentials for accessing the ORACLE DB?
Michael

Hi John
thank You very much. You wrote
BC4J provides a number of mechanisms for specifying the DB username and password that do not require
the password to be stored in a JSP page. By default, in 9.0.2, the DB password is stored in
a BC4J configuration (persisted in a bc4j.xcfg file), which should be secured at the customer site. I've forgotten to mention our environment is SuSE7.2, DB 8.1.7.3, iAS 1.0.2.2, Portal 3.0.9.8.
For simplicity we would like to use the first method via bc4j.xcfg, But our bc4j.xcfg looks as follows
<quote>
<BC4JConfig>
<AppModuleConfigBag>
<AppModuleConfig name="OPKv1ModuleLocal">
<ApplicationName>de.condor.OPKv1.OPKv1Module</ApplicationName>
<DeployPlatform>LOCAL</DeployPlatform>
<JDBCName>WEBAPP_NETx</JDBCName>
<jbo.project>de.condor.OPKv1.opkv1PRJ</jbo.project>
</AppModuleConfig>
</AppModuleConfigBag>
</BC4JConfig>
</quote>
So the question is, where to leave schema/password?JDeveloper should have also generated a connection description in the same file named WEBAPP_NET. This
named connection should contain the relevant elements. It is not recommended that you edit this file directly. The
configuration editor and/or the connection editor should be used instead.
Hope this helps.

WSN 1.2 NI 9792 Security: Initial Setup? Default Username and Password?

Hello,
With NI WSN 1.1, using a 9792, I can click the Set Permissions button and if none had been set it would simply ask me for a new administrator password. Now, with NI WSN 1.2, when I click on the Set Permissions button it takes me to the 9792's web interface and says "Either no one is logged in or you do not have permissions to view/edit users, groups, and permissions." When I click the Login button, a box pops up and asks me for both a username and password. I scoured the release notes, help files, and the internet and it seems there is NO documentation on how to setup the very first username/password combination nor does it state what default username/password combination there might be. I also tried a brand new 9792 straight out of the box and loaded 1.2 on it and it has the same issue. Is there something obvious that I'm missing? How does someone initially set up security on the 9792?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello Garrett,
Thanks for your post!
It looks like you are needing information on how to find out the log in information of your 9792. When using NI-WSN 1.1 we allowed users to set the initial password and this is still the case for the 9791. The 9792 is a NI-WSN node gateway as well as a LabVIEW Real Time target. Its default log in information can either be found in a Knowledge Base (KB) the LabVIEW help or MAX help. Are you using LabVIEW 2009 SP1 or LabVIEW 2010?
The default user name and password is the following:
username: admin
password: <blank>

New Imac. I get rid off login password from security and accounts and restart. Now it asks for username and password and it's not acepting anything. Any ideas?

First, reset your password as follows.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.
If you're being prompted to authenticate when making changes to files inside your home folder, continue as follows.
Back up all data now.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:20 ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ 2> /dev/null
Be sure to select the whole line by triple-clicking anywhere in it. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar. A text window opens.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.
