INTRODUCTION
|
|
|
|
casa_identoken is the Identity Token Provider plug-in for tokens of type
|
|
CasaIdentityToken. This are the default identity tokens utilized by CASA
|
|
Authentication.
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURATION
|
|
|
|
The path to the casa_identoken plug-in is configured by placing the file
|
|
CasaIdentityToken.conf in the /etc/CASA/authtoken/modules folder.
|
|
|
|
PROGRAMMING NOTES
|
|
|
|
This module does not provide APIs to components outside of the CASA
|
|
Authentication framework.
|
|
|
|
SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
|
|
|
|
CasaIdentityTokens are embedded inside CASA Authentication Tokens. CasaIdentityTokens
|
|
contain identity information which may be confidential and no attempts are made to
|
|
ensure the confidentiality of the data. Because of this it is important that CASA
|
|
Authentication Tokens be secured by applications making use of them. It is recommended
|
|
that CASA authentication tokens be transmitted using SSL.
