An Integration Authentication Method is a security-focused interoperable authentication method that can support integration authentication tasks for system integrations and service integrations.
- AKA: Integration Auth Method, System Authentication Method, Integration Security Method.
- Context:
- It can typically verify System Identitys through authentication credentials including system certificates, service accounts, and API credentials.
- It can typically establish Trust Relationships through authentication protocols implementing mutual authentication, token exchange, and credential validation.
- It can typically manage Authentication Contexts through context managers maintaining authentication state, session information, and security tokens.
- It can typically handle Credential Managements through credential stores supporting credential storage, credential rotation, and credential revocation.
- It can typically implement Authentication Flows through authentication sequences including initial authentication, authentication renewal, and authentication termination.
- ...
- It can often provide Multi-Factor Authentications through authentication layers requiring primary credentials and secondary verifications.
- It can often enable Federated Authentications through identity federation supporting identity provider integration and single sign-on capability.
- It can often support Delegated Authentications through delegation protocols allowing authorization grants and permission delegations.
- It can often maintain Authentication Audits through audit systems recording authentication events, access attempts, and security incidents.
- ...
- It can range from being a Basic Integration Authentication Method to being an Advanced Integration Authentication Method, depending on its authentication sophistication.
- It can range from being a Password-Based Integration Authentication Method to being a Certificate-Based Integration Authentication Method, depending on its authentication mechanism.
- It can range from being a Stateless Integration Authentication Method to being a Stateful Integration Authentication Method, depending on its authentication state management.
- It can range from being a Centralized Integration Authentication Method to being a Distributed Integration Authentication Method, depending on its authentication architecture.
- It can range from being a Standard Integration Authentication Method to being a Custom Integration Authentication Method, depending on its authentication protocol conformance.
- ...
- It can integrate with Identity Management System for identity verification.
- It can connect to Security Token Service for token generation.
- It can interface with Directory Service for credential lookup.
- It can communicate with Audit System for authentication logging.
- It can synchronize with Policy Engine for authentication policy enforcement.
- ...
- Example(s):
- Token-Based Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- OAuth Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- JWT Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- Key-Based Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- Cloud Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- AWS Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- Azure Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- ...
- Token-Based Integration Authentication Methods, such as:
- Counter-Example(s):
- User Authentication Method, which authenticates human users rather than systems.
- Network-Level Security, which relies on network location rather than identity verification.
- Anonymous Access, which requires no authentication or identity proof.
