Atlassian Crowd supports authenticating through remote directories, using LDAP, OpenID, Google Apps, Active Directory, etc. It also supports Custom Directories, for creating your own authenticator. Is it possible to use this interface to implement a CAS client that can authenticate towards an external CAS server?
I don't know much or anything about Atlassian Crowd, but it seems like they have a connector available for Spring Security, and Spring Security does already have CAS support. So you might be able to use what they have and what Spring Security has to connect it to your CAS instance. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CROWD/Integrating+Crowd+with+Spring+Security

My organization has decided to use Drools as a decision management framework. We are using the new UI business-central which is deployed as a WAR file in WildFly server for managing the rules and the assets related to the rules.
We have licensed Gsuite for our emails and other activities. We want to use Google login for the users of the business-central system instead of the username and password-based auth provided.
One way to do it is by using a Keycloak server which will provide us a way to manage users and authentication. But we do not want to maintain an extra server just for authentication.
Can someone please help me in achieving this authentication? Also, it would be helpful if I can know in advance the pitfalls of such a type of authentication approach.
Here are the version details for the drools system:
Java: openjdk version "1.8.0_242"
Drools: 7.33.0.Final
After doing a lot of trial and error and quite a bit of googling around. I have reached the conclusion that providing social login in business-central should be done via Keycloak if you are using Wildfly.
There are a lot of security-related features that you will get out of the box and you won't have to tweak around the drools code and later on finding out that you have missed a use case.
I have a Library that is use to authenticate my user and get roles. In my library I must call the LDAP, the Database and merge the result to get my user role. Is it possible to call my library with RH-SSO? Before I use picketlink and I define in my standalone the login-module to call my lib
Thank you
Based on the upstream project (Keycloak) documentation, you need to implement the User Storage SPI.
I am reading alot about federated identity management and technologies like SAML, which can be used for implementing SSO for web applications, and Kerberos, which can be used for implementing SSO für desktop applications.
This is how I understood it so far. If we have the case, that we want to have SSO for a set of web applications and desktop applications, what are the technologies that are available for that? Do I have to combine SAML and Kerberos or is there another technology that fits better?
AFAIK, Microsoft ADFS and Oracle Access Manager are SSO products which supports SAML, Kerberos and other related protocols, does Windows based authentication and thus provide SSO access across webapps and desktop.

My company is using shibboleth to perform Single sign on.
The applications we use to sign in are wordpress and Owncloud. Now, We are planning to include Tuleap Open ALM (Application Lifecycle Management) to use shibboleth to do single sign on.
So is there a plug-in to do it, A way it can be done or is it possible or impossible, Could you provide your views and thoughts to help me?
There is no explicit plugin for Tuleap to use shibboleth. However, I think shibboleth can be used with openId and that Tuleap can also be configured to use openId. The other Tuleap authentication methods are native and ldap.
In our current setup we have about a dozen web applications that deploy to a single Tomcat server. One of these applications is CAS which is used for all authorization.
This works pretty well and in our jRuby web application we use the rubycas-client gem, point to CAS and we're done.
Now we have a requirements where, in a Java component, we need to be able to call out to another web application via a rest service that resides on the same server. My first thought was to use CAS proxy tickets but the web application we have to hit currently doesn't have this enabled and, due to the nature of the environment, this cannot be changed.
So as far as I can tell we're left trying to impersonate the user by using an iframe in our web application that points to the other one (we're all on the same domain and server) and scrape its sessionid for impersonation and pass it down to the Java layer. But I really, really don't want to do this.
Am I missing anything? Is there any better ways of doing this? Is there a way to get the sessionid without an iframe maybe?
Thanks!
If you want to call a web service from a web application using CAS identity, you certainly should use the CAS proxy feature.
If you can't cassify your web service, there is another option for you : you could use the Apache module for CAS : https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASC/mod_auth_cas.
