Integration with Keycloak requires creating an OIDC connection in CipherTrust Manager, after you create an OIDC template in Keycloak.

Prerequisites

Have a CipherTrust Manager set up with:

• Client Profile enabled for Multifactor Authentication

• Registration token

On the Keycloak platform

The following is the minimum setup for a Keycloak platform. Refer to Keycloak documentation for more information.

1. Create an admin user.

2. Login to the realm and create one or more users.

3. Create a password for the user.

4. Create an OIDC client in realm with the following settings enabled:

   • General Settings:

     • Client Type: OpenID Connect

     • Client ID: Client name

   • Capability Config:

     • Client Authentication: On

   • Authentication flow:

     • Select: Standard flow and Direct access grants

5. Note three OIDC parameters:

   • Client-ID as configured for the OIDC client

   • Client-Secret as shown for the OIDC client

Create an OIDC connection on CipherTrust Manager
