User management and Access Control in HCM Cloud

Hello,
Information is scarce about User management and Access Control in Oracle Cloud generally. Today, I have two questions :
- How can I bridge HCM Cloud user store with my on-premise IDM or security repository in order to allow identty governance to flow to HCM Cloud service ?
The only information I got was that you can declare manually and by bulk import through files my users. This is not really interresting as I have an automatic IDM with workflows and identity control on provisioning and de-provisioning.
Is there a SPML or proprietary endpoint to do it automatically ? What are the prerequisites ? Do I have to implement OIM on my side ?
- Once my users are created, how can I do webSSO from my internal security repositories to the HCM Cloud service ?
I do not want to distribute new set of login / passwords to my users. Is it possible to do Identity Federation (SAML 2.0 or WS-Fed) with HCM Cloud service ? What are the prerequisites ? Do I have to implement OAM on my side ?
I accept all pieces of information you can give me on this topic to help me understand the funcitonalites, limits and options offered by Oracle Cloud and more precisely by HCM Cloud service.
Best regards,

OIDDAS has limited capability of access control and information hiding. Presently, the permissions and privileges can be set at a realm level, and fine grained access control / information hiding cannot be done.
At present, the only way to restrict view and access control is by appplying ACLs (which is not the safest bet).

Difference between Identity Manager and Access Manager

hi,
Can any body tell me the difference between Identity manager and Access Manager.
thanks in advance

dhawanmayur

Access Manager is for access control (web authentication, authorization), Identity Manager is for identity (userid,profile,role, password etc) provision/management across multi resources (such as unix, active directory, peoplesoft, SAP) etc.

Issue in User Management and Permissions

Hi,
There is an issue found while working on user management and security. When an asset is uploaded to the DAM, even with create and modify permission it is not able to edit.
While analyzing, it was due to the following reasons.
When given “MODIFY” permission to the root folder, it is not applying to all the asset in that folder and sub-folders.
We have to provide “MODIFY” permission for each asset, in this case it won’t apply for newly added asset.
When given “DELETE” permission to the root folder, “MODIFY” permission is applying automatically to all the asset in that folder and sub-folders.
But “myRole” only should modify the asset but not delete.
Is it CQ functionality or an issue.?
Note: Using CQ5.5 version
Regards,
Fazz

In CQ5.4 "MODIFY" permission at folder level is enough for modifying the assets under that folder. But in CQ5.5 "MODIFY" permission is necessary for every asset for editing.

Fazz

Query user roles and access

hi,
How can query user roles and access in whole database? I want to list username, status, rights, and role
thanks
P

Hi,
The data dictionary view dba_users has one row per user.
The data dictionary view dab_role_privs has one row for every distinct combination of user and role that actually occurs ion your database,
Are you interested in system privileges? See dba_sys_privs.
Are you interested in individual grants, like the privilege to UPDATE a given table, or the privilege to execute a given stored procedure? See dba_tab_privs. (Don't be fooled by the name; it's not just for tables.)
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post some CREATE statements, that create tables, roles, and whatever else you want, and some GRANT statmeents that grant privileges on those objects. Pos the results that you would want to get from those objects and grants.

For this i have followed below link, but getting error after login.

I want 100,000 external users to have access to my SharePoint online Site collection.
I was thinking of going the Azure AD route, where external users will have there ID's created in Azure AD cloud.
Trying to figure how I can integrate Azure AD cloud with my SharePoint Online Site collection.
Currently my site collection is tied to On-premise AD.
Is there a way to integrate the SharePoint online to use both Azure AD and On-premise AD?
Thanks

Error in User Management and Assigning Role

Hi,
I have configured LDAP authentication on LiveCycle Server. I get the userlist with LDAP in my admin console under User Management - User & Groups. But as soon I click on any of the LDAP username I am getting error to contact administrator. Same also happens when I check the checbox infront of the username and tries to assing role.
My Livecycle server is on WAS6.1, I also have server setup on my local where the same LDAP i have configured and I am able to access users and assign role. Is there any problem with WAS6.1 ?
I checked the logs and i got following exception in server logs.

War file and access control with WebLogic

I am trying to put some access control on different files in my war-file, but just can't get it to work... It seems like all roles defined in weblogic.properties gives the user access to all files in the war. I just don't understand the connections between the security realm, the weblogicURL.policy file and the web.xml file... If I do not specify a weblogic.security.URLAclFile, no access control is done at all.
This is how my weblogic.properties file looks like:
weblogic.security.URLAclFile=e:\\weblogic\\weblogicURL.policy
weblogic.password.koko=kokokoko
weblogic.password.arnebelinda=arne1234
weblogic.security.group.ppuseradmins=arnebelinda
and my weblogicURL.policy:
deny Principal weblogic.security.acl.GroupImpl "everyone" {
Permission weblogic.security.acl.URLAcl "weblogic.url", "/admin/-";
and finally, my web.xml-file:
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>

     <security-role>
          <role-name>ppuseradmins</role-name>
     </security-role>
</web-app>
it does not matter which user is part of the ppuseradmins group. The user koko is not a member, but is given access to my whole .war anyway (after submitting correct username/password). Omitting the <realm-name> does not seem to work either; the default realm is not used, instead null is used.
Does anybody have a clue? I would really appreciate it!
I am using WebLogic 5.1 sp 9
best regards,
PJ

In you pocily file entry, you have specified "/admin/-"
However, in the <security-constraint> element in web.xml, your <url-pattern> is not set to /admin
Could that be the problem ?

Computer Lists and Access Control

Hi
I've got OS/X Server 10.4.6 setup to a be an OD master and have several linux boxes authenticating to it using kerberos.
Currently, all OD users can login to all the linux boxes, but I'm trying to restrict access to some boxes to a group of users.
I've tried creating a computer list and putting a linux server in this list, then adding entries to the 'access tab' but this doesn't seem to work.
All users can still login to these 'access controlled' servers, in effect the list is ignored.
Has anyone got this working or can shed some light on what I'm doing wrong ?
Thanks,
Mac OS X (10.4.6)

EJB and access controll???

Hi all,
I have a question about access control via EJB,
For example I have a client app�ication and on start I will prompt user for user name and password, and now what to do with this information how to pas it to the ejb server, or??? Or may be some of you have any link to tutorial as an answer? My EJB will access database and I want to use the access control from database.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Eshwa,
thank you for your reply, I found a nice developer guide on the link that you give me, but I steal have a problem with undestanding of practical way to pas user information from client application to ejb server, may be you can give mi a pice of code or an small example, where is geted 2 String (user name and password) and sent to the ejb server to be autentificated, and then to have acces to the resources that is accessable for this user (discribed in the deployment description user - role).
Anyway thank you again.
Best regards Alexander Hincu .

2-way SSL and access control using the client certificate

Hi,
I'd like to configure WLS 8.1 so that the server will use the client identity extracted from the client certificate to determine whether permissions should be granted. I am having some problems.
Details: The client can be either a Web service or a web application. The steps for authentication and authorization should be:
- The client sends a request to an Apache server (DMZ) which will then be forwarded to WLS.
- The client's identity, common name from the X.509 certificate, is mapped to the "username" (using WLS default identity assertion provider).
- Validate whether the client should be trusted (via the list in the trusted credentials)
- Check whether the resource should be granted based on the "username".
The on-line manual says
"If the Web browser or Java client requests a WebLogic Server resource protected by a security policy, WebLogic Server requires that the Web browser or Java client have an identity."
"The user corresponding to the Subject's Distinguished Name (SubjectDN) attribute in the client's digital certificate must be defined in the server's security realm; otherwise the client will not be allowed to access a protected WebLogic resource. For information on configuring users on the server, see Creating Users in Managing WebLogic Security."
So the questions I have are:
- If the client identity is certificate based, why should we configure users with the "user name" and "password"? How can we get around it?
- Once I defined the security condition for my app to use "user name of the caller," a default username and password prompt automatically popped up.
Apparently, the SSL mutual authentication configuration and the default authentication provider to use the X.509 type didn't take any effect.
- Without defining the security policy for the application, the debugging messages show that
getRoles(): input arguments: subject:0
Entitlement - <Role:Annonymous with expr:Grp(everyone)>
Any suggestions? Thanks.
