Fingerprint Finder Begin Site Configuration Guide

Introduction

Use this guide to enable a SecureAuth IdP realm to utilize a Fingerprint Finder begin site.

At this begin site, SecureAuth IdP can search for a Device Recognition Profile cookie and extract the user ID from it. From there, the end-user follows the SecureAuth IdP workflow configured in the realm (e.g. Multi-Factor Authentication) without requiring to enter the user ID, and is asserted to the Post Authentication target.

Prerequisites

2. Create a New Realm or edit an existing realm to which Cert Finder applies in the SecureAuth IdP Web Admin

3. Configure the following tabs in the Web Admin before configuring for Cert Finder:

  • Overview – the description of the realm and SMTP connections must be defined

  • Data – an enterprise directory must be integrated with SecureAuth IdP

  • Workflow – the way in which users will access the target must be defined

  • Multi-Factor Methods – the Multi-Factor Authentication methods that will be used to access the target (if any) must be defined

  • Post Authentication – the target resource or post authentication action must be defined

  • Logs – the logs that will be enabled or disabled for this realm must be defined

SecureAuth IdP Configuration Steps

Workflow

1. In the Workflow section, set the Invalid Persistent Token Redirect to the SecureAuth IdP realm in which end-users can enroll for a device / browser profile cookie

If end-users land on the Fingerprint Finder begin site without a valid profile cookie, then they are redirected to this realm to enroll for a profile cookie that can then be used for the begin site

It is recommended that the enrollment realm have the same Post Authentication action so that the end-user ends up at the same destination despite the realm
