Who Should Attend

  • ForgeRock Access Management
  • Administrators
  • System Integrators
  • System Consultants
  • System Architects
  • System Developers

Course Objectives

    • Start with an unprotected website and end up with a fully functional access management solution where every user trying to access the website is redirected to AM for authentication
    • Improve access management security in AM with multi-factor authentication (MFA), context-based risk analysis, and continuous risk checking
    • Implement OAuth 2.0 (OAuth2) based protocols; namely, OAuth2 and OpenID Connect 1.0 (OIDC), to enable low-level devices and mobile applications to make requests that access resources belonging to a subscriber. AM can be configured to function as an OIDC client and delegate authentication to social media OIDC providers
    • Demonstrate federation across entities using SAML v2.0 (SAML2) with AM
    • Install a new AM instance configured with external directory server data stores as the foundation for an AM cluster
