1 LDS Account and the Java Stack

2 Disclaimer This is a training NOT a presentation. – Be prepared to learn and participate in labs Please ask questions Prerequisites: – Basic Java knowledge – Basic Spring knowledge

3 Outline LDS Account Overview – History – Authentication – User Details Spring Security Overview – Authentication – LDS Account integration – In memory integration LDS Account Search Spring Security and Authorization

4 History Historically each application handled authentication as a one off – Troublesome for users (many credentials to remember) – User information duplicated over and over throughout the enterprise – Difficult to get user information at all Screaming for consolidation and a single, central solution

5 LDS Account "LDS Account is a single user name and password for any person who interacts with online LDS Church resources. LDS Account is the primary account authentication credentials for most Church sites and applications. It reduces development costs that would be incurred as the user interfaces change, or as upgrades to security and the registration process are required. Unlike previous authentication systems, LDS Account is a branded single sign-on solution that is centrally managed at ldsaccount.lds.org."

6 LDS Account (cont.) "LDS Account has become the key to accessing all the resources the Church has to offer, such as family history tools, ward and stake websites, employment resources, and more.... The idea is to have only one username and password that you can use with all password-protected websites the Church has."

7 What is LDS Account? LDS Account is meant to be the single source for user authentication and basic user information LDS Account is implemented with LDAP LDS Account is an application for maintaining user attributes

8 LDS Account Uses LDAP Lightweight Directory Access Protocol Distributed directory of information – Much like a database – Not queried with SQL – For further information about the Directory structure, please see the corresponding section at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_ Access_Protocol LDS Account = LDAP WAM = Single Sign-on

9 User Details LDS Account also provides user information – User details – User details can be exposed through LDAP attributes WAM headers SAML attributes

10 LDS Account User Details Integration The LDS Account module acts as a Java model for LDS Account information LdsAccountDetails.java is the abstraction layer for LDS Account user details integration Factories generate LdsAccountDetails object for each user – Factories handle the different formats in which the raw user details attributes are provide to the application LDAP attributes, WAM headers, SAML, …

12 LDS Account Spring Security Integration

13 Authentication vs. Authorization Authentication - "you are who you say you are" – Identification of an individual user of the application – Credential-based authentication Authorization - "you have appropriate permissions to perform the operation you are attempting" – Availability of functionality and data to users who are authorized (or allowed) to access it – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authentication#Authent ication_vs._authorization

14 Spring Security Spring Security is a highly customizable and pluggable enterprise authentication / authorization security framework – Provides tools for managing application access (authentication) – Rules for what users can access (by url) (authorization) – Securing methods (authorization),... Overcomes lack of depth in J2EE Servlet Specification Further information can be found here: http://static.springsource.org/spring- security/site/reference.html

15 Spring Security (authentication) Spring comes with many pluggable authentication providers – Support provided for authenticating with: LDAP X.509 (Certificates) Databases (JDBC) JAAS OAuth HTTP BASIC Form-based …

16 Spring Security Authentication Manager Basic configuration: Native Spring in memory authentication provider configuration (applicationContext.xml)...

17 Spring Security Web Configuration Configure filter in web.xml springSecurityFilterChain org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy springSecurityFilterChain /*

18 Spring Security Context Configuration Configure applicationContext.xml Please see documentation for further element and attribute information: http://static.springsource.org/spring- security/site/docs/3.1.x/reference/springsecurity- single.html

19 Demo

20 Spring Security/LDS Account Integration LDS Account authentication provider hooks into Spring Security In-memory implementation Namespace handlers simplify the configuration http://code.lds.org/maven- sites/stack/module.html?module=lds- account/stack-lds-account- spring/index.html#LDAP_Global_Directory_Auth entication

21 Spring Security/In-memory Authentication In-memory authentication provides quick setup Useful for testing http://code.lds.org/maven- sites/stack/module.html?module=lds- account/stack-lds-account- spring/index.html#In_Memory_Authentication Attribute information: https://ldsteams.ldschurch.org/sites/wam/Imple mentation%20Details/HTTP%20Headers.aspx

22 Access LdsAccountDetails Through injection Through static lookup @Inject private Provider ldsAccountDetails; public void someMethod() { //not the get() is a call on the provider to grab the current instance String preferredName = ldsAccountDetails.get().getPreferredName(); //… } LdsAccountDetails ldsAccountDetails = ((LdsAccountUser) SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication().getPrincipal()).getLdsAccountDetails(); String preferredName = ldsAccountDetails.getPreferredName(); //…

23 Demo

25 LDS Account (LDAP) Search

26 LDS Account Search Configuration / Usage Configuration Usage <lds-account:ldap-server url="ldaps://gdirstage.wh.ldsglobal.net:636" manager-dn="cn=XXXXX,ou=apps,o=lds" manager-password="XXXXX"/> @Inject private LdsAccountSearch ldsAccountSearch; public List findLdapUsers(String cnValue, String snValue) { return ldsAccountSearch.search( SearchClause.or( SearchClause.equals(LdsAccountAttributes.USERNAME, cnValue + "*"), SearchClause.equals(LdsAccountAttributes.SUR_NAME, snValue + "*") ) ); }

27 LDS Account Usage http://code.lds.org/maven-sites/stack/module.html?module=lds- account/stack-lds-account-spring/index.html#LDAP_Search Searching format For more info: http://code.lds.org/maven- sites/stack/module.html?module=lds-account/stack-lds-account- spring/apidocs/org/lds/stack/ldsaccount/spring/ldap/LdapSearch.html Native LDAP search query: (|(cn={0}*)(sn={1}*)) Abstracted search query: SearchClause.or( SearchClause.equals("cn", value + "*"), SearchClause.equals("sn", value + "*") )

28 Demo

29 Authorization with Spring Security

30 Review Authentication vs. Authorization Previously discussed authentication with Spring Security Now focus on authorization with Spring Security

31 Authorization with Spring Security Comprehensive Authorization Services – http://static.springsource.org/spring- security/site/features.html HTTP requests authorization (securing urls) @PreAuthorize annotation Granted authorities – http://static.springsource.org/spring- security/site/docs/3.1.x/reference/springsecurity- single.html#tech-granted-authority

32 Protecting Urls Example of protecting urls http://static.springsource.org/spring- security/site/docs/3.1.x/reference/springsecurity -single.html#el-access

33 Authorize Tag Fine grained authorization http://static.springsource.org/spring- security/site/docs/3.1.x/reference/springsecurity -single.html#d0e6860 Content only visible to users who have the "admin" authority in their list of GrantedAuthority(s). Content only visible to users authorized to send requests to the "/secure" URL.

34 @PreAuthorize annotation Scanning enabled with following element: Some examples: @PreAuthorize("hasRole('ROLE_ADMIN')") public void create(User newUser); @PreAuthorize("#user.username == principal.username") public void doSomething(User user);

35 Authorities Populators MemberAuthoritiesPopulator – Adds ROLE_MEMBER authority if a member WorkforceAuthoritiesPopulator – Adds ROLE_WORKFORCE authority if currently a Church employee PositionsV2AuthoritiesPopulator – Adds a granted authority for each position held Position name prepended with ROLE_ Ex. ROLE_WARD_CLERK, or ROLE_PRIMARY_TEACHER

36 Authorities Populators http://code.lds.org/maven- sites/stack/module.html?module=lds- account/stack-lds-account- spring/index.html#Authorities_Populators Example

37 Demo

38 Conclusion LDS Account rocks! The Java Stack integration with LDS Account and Spring Security rocks!
