Mobile SSO - web brower+ native iOS

we have a situation where users have applications both html5 based web and
also native iOS apps accessing from iPads

The requirement is that users access the web based application within a
iPad, which will be redirected to central server for login.
Once user logins, next time, if the same user just tap on the native app
within the same device, it should not again prompt for userid/password,
rather SSO takes care of it

We need to design so that users can toggle back and forth among mobile
browser apps and mobile apps.
This is ideal for agents, sales reps, who to need to switch quickly among
programs while on the go.,

Would like to know - is this something aerogear security supports please or any suggestion, advice?

Thanks and Regards
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

sorry for the late response, but did you checkout keycloak project ? The AeroGear team did do OAuth2 libs for Keycloak, as described here:

https://aerogear.org/docs/guides/security/oauth2-guide/

Keycloak itself has also support for web apps (e.g. the UPS is protected by it)

HTH,

Matthias

Re: [Aerogear-users] Mobile SSO - web brower+ native iOS

Hi Jeff

To share OAuth2 tokens between Cordova app and iOS native app on a same mobile, I'd use the Keychain sharing mechanism. I wrote a blog about Keychain sharing between iOS mobile app and its extension [1]. The idea is similar here.

I think more work is needed on push plugin to make it more extendable and allow the generation of the required Entitlements.plist file [2]. @Erik can talk more about it and obviously PR are welcome.

Last but not least, for security reason, Keychain sharing is allowed only between apps signed by a same organisation.

Re: [Aerogear-users] Mobile SSO - web brower+ native iOS

Hi Jeff,

Right, so cordova uses the OAuth2 swift code directly so the changes made to the cookbook to allow sharing of the Keychain could also be applied to the cordova plugin.

And like Corinne already mentioned it would be nice if this was a feature that one could easily enable. Could you create a feature request for it?
