11 Implementing OTP Anywhere

This chapter explains how to implement OTP Anywhere. OTP Anywhere allows end users to authenticate themselves by entering a server generated one-time-password (OTP). When the OTP is sent via SMS, the user's cell phone serves as a physical second factor that the user has in their possession. As well, the authentication is being sent out-of-band to increase the level of assurance that only the valid user has access to the one-time password.

Benefits of OTP Anywhere are:

This chapter contains these sections:

11.1 About the Implementation

One-Time Password (OTP) is a form of secondary authentication, which is used in addition to standard user name and password credentials to strengthen the existing authentication and authorization process, thereby providing additional security for users. The application sends a one-time password that is only valid for the current session to the user. This password is used to challenge the user to verify the user's identity.

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager 11g provides the framework to support One Time Password (OTP) authentication using Oracle User Messaging Service (UMS).

This implementation enables an application to use OTP to challenge users with Oracle User Messaging Service (UMS) used as the method to deliver the password.

The high-level integration tasks consist of:

11.2 Concepts and Terms

This section provides the terms that are helpful to know as you implement OTP Anywhere.

11.2.1 One Time Password (OTP)

One Time Password (OTP) is used to authenticate an individual based on a single-use alphanumeric credential. The OTP is delivered to the user's configured delivery method. The user then provides the OTP credential as the response to proceed with the operation. The following are major benefits of using out-of-band OTP:

  • If the end user's browser/internet is compromised, the authentication can safely take place in another band of communication separate from the browser

  • The user does not require any proprietary hardware or client software of any kind.

11.2.2 Oracle User Messaging Service (UMS)

The UMS Server orchestrates message flows between applications and users. OAAM uses UMS to send email, SMS, IM, or voice message to the user.

11.2.3 Challenge Processor

A challenge processor is java code that implements the ChallengeProcessorIntf interface or extends the AbstractChallengeProcessor class. Custom challenge processors can be created to generate a challenge, validate the challenge answer from the user, and check service delivery and availability statuses. By default OAAM has support (or challenge processor implementations) for KBA question challenges and OTP challenges via SMS and email through UMS delivery.

11.2.4 Challenge Type

"Channel" refers to the delivery channel used to send an OTP to the user (Email, SMS, or IM). The challenge type is the channel that OTP is using to challenge the user. A challenge type can be configured for any differences in handling for a challenge that is required. Handling of challenge types could be any specifics for that challenge type, from generating the "secret" used for the challenge to delivering the "secret" to the user and finally validating the users input. For each type of challenge these primary processes (Generation, Sending, and Validating) could require slightly different code.

11.3 Prerequisites

Ensure that the following prerequisites are met before configuring OTP for your application.

Note:

Ensure you are familiar with deploying custom OAAM extensions.

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager is customized through adding customized jars and files to an extensions shared library.

For information, refer to Chapter 7, "Customizing Oracle Adaptive Access Manager.".

11.3.1 Install SOA Suite

Oracle SOA Suite must be installed outside of the OAAM domains. UMS is a part of SOA.

For information, refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Business Process Management Suite.

11.3.2 Configure the UMS Driver

UMS must be configured for appropriate delivery gateways on the SOA that the OAAM Server is configured to send messages through.

UMS Drivers connect UMS to the messaging gateways, adapting content to the various protocols supported by UMS. Drivers can be deployed or undeployed independently of one another depending on what messaging channels are available in a given installation.

11.3.2.1 Email Driver

Configure the Email driver to a SMTP server. See the "Configuring the Email Driver" section of Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Business Process Management Suite for how to configure the Email driver.

11.3.2.2 SMPP Driver

Short Message Peer-to-Peer (SMPP) is one of the most popular GSM SMS protocols. User Messaging Service includes a prebuilt implementation of the SMPP protocol as a driver that is capable of both sending and receiving short messages.

Note:

For SMS, unlike the Email driver that is deployed out-of-the-box, you need to deploy the SMPP driver first before modifying the configurations.

Configure the SMPP driver as described in the "Configuring the SMPP Driver" section of the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Business Process Management Suite. You will need to provide parameter values for connecting to the driver gateway vendor.

Table 11-1 Connecting to the Vendor

To control the presence of the Decline button on the profile registration pages, set the following properties:

bharosa.uio.default.register.userinfo.decline.enabled = true

bharosa.uio.default.userpreferences.userinfo.decline.enabled = true

Note:

Even if these are true, the button will not show if the Opt Out property is false.

When the Decline button is enabled, the user will have another option on the OTP registration page that will allow him to Opt out of OTP challenges. He will not be asked to register OTP again, and will not receive OTP challenges. However, if a Customer Care OTP Profile reset is performed (or reset all) the user will have the opportunity to register OTP again.

Also, even if the user has opted out of OTP, he can access the OTP page in User Preferences and add information and click Continue. This will remove the OTP out flag and the user will now be registered for OTP.

11.6.4 Customizing Challenge Page Messaging

Add challenge type fields to client_resource.properties.

11.8 Configuring the Challenge Pads Used for Challenge Types

By default, challenge devices that will be used are configured through rules. The rules are under the AuthentiPad checkpoint where you can specify the type of device to use based on the purpose of the device.

To create/update policies to use the challenge type:

  1. Add a new rule action, MyChallenge, with the enum, rule.action.enum.

  2. Create policy to return newly created action, MyChallenge, to use the challenge method.

Alternatively, if you want to configure challenge devices using properties, you can bypass the AuthentiPad checkpoint by setting bharosa.uio.default.use.authentipad.checkpoint to false.

Devices to use for the challenge type can be added.

bharosa.uio.<application>.<challengeType>.authenticator.device=<value>

The examples shown use the challenge type key, ChallengeEmail and ChallengeSMS to construct the property name.

bharosa.uio.default.ChallengeSMS.authenticator.device=DevicePinPad
bharosa.uio.default.ChallengeEmail.authenticator.device=DevicePinPad

Available challenge device values are DeviceKeyPadFull, DeviceKeyPadAlpha, DeviceTextPad, DeviceQuestionPad, DevicePinPad, and DeviceHTMLControl.

DeviceHTMLControl

Challenge user using HTML page instead of an authentication pad.


11.9 Customizing OTP Anywhere Data Storage

This section describes how to customize data storage for OTP Anywhere. You can customize OTP Anywhere by implementing the com.bharosa.uio.manager.user.UserDataManagerIntf interface.

11.9.1 com.bharosa.uio.manager.user.UserDataManagerIntf

The methods used in customization are:

  • public String getUserData(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key);

  • public void setUserData(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key, String value);

11.9.2 Default Implementation - com.bharosa.uio.manager.user.DefaultContactInfoManager

The default implementation expands on the interface to break every get and set into two items: UserDataValue and UserDataFlag. The UserDataFlag is used by OAAM to track that a value has been set, or soft reset a value. When rules are used to check if a user is registered for a given item, the UserDataFlag will be checked in the OAAM database. The UserDataValue is the actual data element entered by the user. In the default implementation this is also stored in the OAAM database, but by extending the DefaultContactInfoManager class and overriding the UserDataValue methods (getUserDataValue and setUserDataValue) the data can be stored in an external location if required.

Methods

public class DefaultContactInfoManager implements UserDataManagerIntf {
 
                  public String getUserData(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key){
                    if (getUserDataFlag(sessionData, key)){
                      return getUserDataValue(sessionData, key);
                    }
 
                    return null;
                  }
 
                  public void setUserData(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key, String value){
                    setUserDataValue(sessionData, key, value);
                    setUserDataFlag(sessionData, key, value);
                  }
 
                  protected void setUserDataValue(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key, String value){
                    VCryptAuthUser clientUser = sessionData.getClientAuthUser();
                    if (clientUser != null) {
                      clientUser.setUserData(BharosaConfig.get("oaam.otp.contact.info.prefix", "otpContactInfo_") + key, value);
                    }
                  }
 
                  protected String getUserDataValue(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key) {
                    VCryptAuthUser clientUser = sessionData.getClientAuthUser();
                    if (clientUser != null) {
                      return clientUser.getUserData(BharosaConfig.get("oaam.otp.contact.info.prefix", "otpContactInfo_") + key);
                    }
 
                    return null;
                  }
 
 
                  protected void setUserDataFlag(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key, String value){
                    VCryptAuthUser clientUser = sessionData.getClientAuthUser();
                    if (clientUser != null) {
                      if (StringUtil.isEmpty(value)) {
                        clientUser.setUserData(BharosaConfig.get("oaam.otp.contact.info.flag.prefix", "otpContactInfoFlag_") + key, null);
                      } else {
                        clientUser.setUserData(BharosaConfig.get("oaam.otp.contact.info.flag.prefix", "otpContactInfoFlag_") + key, "true");
                      }
                    }
                  }
 
                  protected boolean getUserDataFlag(UIOSessionData sessionData, String key) {
                    VCryptAuthUser clientUser = sessionData.getClientAuthUser();
                    if (clientUser != null) {
                      return Boolean.valueOf(clientUser.getUserData(BharosaConfig.get("oaam.otp.contact.info.flag.prefix", "otpContactInfoFlag_") + key));
                    }
 
                    return false;
                  }
 
 
                }
        

11.9.3 Custom Implementation Recommendations

Extend the base implementation class DefaultContactInfoManager, and override the "setUserDataValue" and "getUserDataValue" methods to store the data values where appropriate for you implementation.

Leave the default implementation of "setUserDataFlag" and "getUserDataFlag" in place in order for OAAM to properly track which data has been set for the user.

11.9.4 Configuring Properties

OTP Anywhere registration fields are defined by the user defined enum: bharosa.uio.default.userinfo.inputs.enum.

Each element has a "managerClass" property that designates which class will be used to store the registration data.

For example, the default mobile phone element is as follows:

  bharosa.uio.default.userinfo.inputs.enum=Enum for Contact information
        bharosa.uio.default.userinfo.inputs.enum.mobile=0

11.11 Challenge Use Case

An example challenge scenario is presented below.

  1. Oracle Adaptive Access Manager Server presents the user with the user name page.

  2. The user submits his user name on the user name page.

  3. Oracle Adaptive Access Manager fingerprints the user device and runs pre-authentication rules to determine if the user should be allowed to proceed to the password page.

  4. The user is allowed to proceed to the password page and he enters his password.

  5. The OAAM policies indicate that the user should be challenged.

  6. The challenge checkpoint is run to determine the type of challenge to use (KBA, Email, SMS, and so on). If SMS challenge is returned, the SMS Challenge Processor is loaded and used to generate and deliver an OTP to the user via SMS.

  7. Once the SMS has been sent, the user is presented with a challenge page indicating that his OTP has been sent to him in an SMS.

  8. User submits correct OTP to continue into application and complete the login flow.

The OTP generated and sent to the user is only valid for one correct submission within a single HTTP session. If the user's HTTP session expires and a new OTP will be generated and sent if he is challenged again in a later session.
