Managing Identity Providers

This section describes how to manage identity providers on CCKM. Identity providers can be added, viewed, modified, or deleted on the External Vaults tab of the Oracle Vaults page. Identity providers are required when adding the external vaults, refer to Managing External Vaults for details.

Creating Identity Providers

An issuer or an openId configuration URL is required to create an identity provider.

To create an identify provider:

1. Open the Cloud Key Manager Application.

2. In the left pane, click KMS Containers > Oracle Vaults.

3. Click the External Vaults tab.

4. Scroll down the page, go to the IDENTITY PROVIDERS, and click Add Identity Provider. The Add Identity Provider screen is displayed.

5. Specify a unique Name for the provider. This is a mandatory field.

6. Select Provider Verifier. This is a mandatory field. The verifier can be Issuer or OpenID Configuration URL.

   Note

   • OpenID Configuration URL is the recommended option.

   • If you select the Issuer option, you need to specify a combination of Issuer and jwksURL.

   Make sure to provide the exact CipherTrust Data Security Platform Service application's credentials, as received from Oracle; otherwise, external APIs might cease to work as expected. Currently, only Oracle IDCS is supported as identity provider and the issuer should be https://identity.oraclecloud.com/.

   Click the desired tab below to view instructions.

   Issuer

   If you select Issuer, you need to specify the combination of Issuer and JWKS URI.

   1. Select Issuer.

   2. Enter a valid Issuer.

   3. Specify jwksURL.

   OpenID Config URL

   This is the recommended option.

   1. Select OpenId Configuration URL.

   2. Specify the OpenId Configuration URL. The URL must be valid. It is a combination of "Identity Domain URL" and "/.well-known/openid-configuration". For example, a sample Open ID Config URL is:

      https://idcs-34db4d7d06886cea8e26e0eaafb56cc6.identity.oraclecloud.com/.well-known/openid-configuration
      

7. (If Oracle IDCS is configured in the protected mode), select jwks Protected URL and specify the following:

   • Client ID: Client ID of the CipherTrust Data Security Platform Service application as registered on third-party IDP.

   • Client Secret: Client secret of the CipherTrust Data Security Platform Service application as registered on third-party IDP.

8. Click Add.

9. Click Close.
