Usage Analytics and Data Collection

Following the announcement made on 06/02/2020 in this CRN, and communications in previous Newsletters, usage analytics and data collection is now enabled.

The purpose of this capability is to help Thales understand usage trends and patterns, and ultimately improve your experience with the STA product.

Thales is committed to treating the information that is collected with the utmost care and confidentiality. As such, the data is anonymized to protect the privacy of the individual, will remain in the same region as the service, and will only be used to analyze aggregated statistical trends. Finally, the collected data does not contain personally identifiable information (PII) and will strictly be used for Thales’ internal use.

Customers have, at any time, the ability to opt out from usage analytics and data collection. For more information, please refer to Knowledge Base article KB0021755.

This service pack release of STA resolves the issue listed below:

Issue	Synopsis
SAS-40670	SAML Signature Key Name is correctly set.

Note: This upgrade of the STA IDP enforces valid certificates for SAML request validation. If, after this upgrade, “Invalid requester” displays when trying to authenticate to a service provider, follow these instructions:

As a temporary workaround, you can disable signature validation on the incoming SAML request to immediately enable authentication with the service provider. This option is only available for generic template integrations or templates that expose the functionality.

We recommend to update the request signing certificate as soon as possible.
1. Logon to the STA Management Console.
2. Browse to the affected application.
3. In Advanced Settings, select “Skip request signature validation”.
4. If enabled with the same expired certificate, assertion encryption must be disabled. This will require an update by the service provider, too.
5. Save Configuration.
For a permanent solution, please work with your service provider to update the SAML request signing certificate.

Afterward, the certificate must be imported into STA via metadata import or manual certificate import before re-enabling “Verify request signature”.

Refer to the documentation for more detailed instructions.

Opt-out Option for Usage Analytics and Data Collection: As communicated in our recent May Newsletter, we will be introducing usage analytics and data collection in the coming months. The purpose of this is to help us understand usage trends and patterns, and ultimately improve your experience with the STA product. The only data that is collected will be focused on the operator’s use of the management consoles. We are committed to treating the information that is collected with the utmost care and confidentiality. As such, the data will be anonymized to protect the privacy of the individual, will remain in the same region as the service, and will be used only to analyze aggregated statistical trends. The data collected will not contain personally identifiable information (PII) and will strictly be used for Thales’ internal use.

In advance of rolling out usage analytics and data collection, which is planned for June 15, 2020, we are now introducing the ability to opt out from it for your tenant. As such, if you desire, you may opt out from usage analytics and data collection now or at any point in the future. Once opted out, you will also be able to opt back in. The option is available to you from inside the STA Access Management console, from the Terms of Service page link that is accessible at the bottom right of the console. Screen shots are provided below for your reference. For more information about usage analytics and data collection in STA, refer to the Knowledge Base article KB0021755, which is available on our Support Portal.

You can combine the anonymizer and network conditions to remove false positives that could be caused by the detection of legitimate customer proxies. Use the anonymizer condition to step-up authentication or deny access in these situations.
User Device condition: Checks whether the access request originates from a known device for this user. This condition determines whether this user has successfully authenticated using this device in the specified period. This condition allows you to lower authentication requirements and reduce user friction when authenticating with a known device.

Three Subscription Plans are introduced

STA is now available in three subscription plans:

STA Basic
STA
STA Premium

The three plans have the following features:

	STA Basic	STA	STA Premium

SAS service subscriptions are upgraded to STA Basic

SAS service subscriptions are now upgraded to STA Basic subscriptions. This comes with new features that were previously accessible to only STA customers:

Access management policies for different groups of users: Control access decisions and authentication requirements to applications based on the user's group membership.
Access management policy scenarios based on network context: Control access decisions and authentication requirements to applications based on which network the user is connecting from.
User-initiated token enrollment – also referred to as inline enrollment: Customers can configure the ability for users to self-provision their SafeNet MobilePASS+ token. Self-provisioning means that users who don't already have a token can immediately enroll a new token on their own when they need it, without using an enrollment email.
Application management: Customers can configure the integration of applications using predefined SAML or OIDC templates.

Default operators (with the operator role) are automatically granted permissions to access the STA Access Management console (the STA console). They can extend this permission to other operator roles that are configured by the customer.

03/22/2018

This service pack release introduces the following feature and resolves the issue listed below:

Filter Logs by Dates: This feature enables customers to apply a date range filter when viewing the STA Access Logs and Audit Logs so that only those logs that fall within the specified date range are displayed.

Limitations and Important Notes

This service pack removes some of the limitations stated in the service pack 03/15/2018.

The Generic Template has been updated to allow an application to integrate with the User Portal when using the SP-initiated flow – in this case, a Service Login URL must now be configured as part of the application configuration. Applications that were previously configured with the Generic Template and require the SPinitiated flow must be reconfigured with the new (and now current) version of the Generic Template in order to work properly with the User Portal.

Templates for the following applications now support the User Portal:

Oracle WebLogic Server
AirWatch
BlueJeans

If you configured any of these applications prior to this service pack, then you must reconfigure them using the new (and now current) version of the associated template in order for the application to properly work with the User Portal.

Resolved Issue

Issue	Synopsis
SAS-21223	Metadata Upload using the Generic Template supports Wallix Access Manager, New Relic, FreshDesk, and BambooHR.

03/15/2018

This service pack release introduces the following feature and resolves the issues listed below:

User Portal: Portal from which end users can view a list of their applications and access them with a simple click. A Single-Sign-On session is initiated when logging into the user portal. This allows users to access their applications seamlessly from the Portal, requiring additional authentication only when needed as specified by the policy.

Limitations and Important Notes

If you are using the Generic Template to configure an application, the application must support the IdP-initiated flow (as defined in the SAML standards) in order to be invoked from the User Portal.

Applications which cannot yet be invoked from the User Portal include:

Oracle WebLogic Server
AirWatch
BlueJeans
Palo Alto GlobalProtect
Apache Web Server

A maintenance release with updates for the Generic Template and templates for the above-listed applications will soon be introduced to remove the above-stated limitations. Once this is available you will be required to reconfigure these applications in the Applications tab of the STA console with the new templates in order to use the applications in conjunction with the User Portal.

If you have already configured instances of the following applications in STA:

G Suite
SAP Cloud Platform
Adobe Creative Cloud

and want to allow your users to access the application from the User Portal, you must first create a new instance of the application in the Applications tab of the STA console and use that new instance. This will ensure that the application is configured based on a version of the template which provides parameters that are required for correct inter-working with the User Portal.

This is the first release of SafeNet Trusted Access (STA). This release includes the following features:

Federated Smart Single Sign-On (SSO) – Provides users with convenient access to applications by extending their current identity to the cloud and enabling them to log in to all their cloud applications with a single identity. Users can authenticate once during a SSO session and be automatically authenticated for each application that they access during the same session.
Application Configuration – A simple to use, template-based, user interface for configuring your applications in STA. Administrators can select a template that corresponds to the application – or if none exist, use the Generic Template. Each template includes help configuration information specific to the application.

The help configuration information associated with each template is currently provided in a preliminary version that may contain some inaccuracies.
Access Policies – A Global and (optional) Exception policies enable you to configure the level of access or authentication requirements that apply, taking into consideration which application is accessed, by whom, and in which context.
Context Conditions – Network and location specific conditions can be configured in order to specify authentication requirements in relation to the context of the access request.
Flexible Authentication – Uses SAS and a variety of software and hardware credentials, including: Active Directory (domain) passwords, token-based One-Time Passwords (OTP), Push authentication, SMS, and GrIDsure.
Logs and Dashboard – Logs of access attempts: whom accessed which application, when, and through which policy. Displays statistics of access attempts per policy and application.

SAS-21246	Summary: Signing and Encryption certificates are not loading into STA when the application is configured with the application-provided metadata file and when the “use” attribute is missing in the “KeyDescriptor” element of the cryptographic key (or certificate). Workaround: If a Signing or Encryption certificate is required for the configuration, verify that the application-provided metadata file includes the “use” attribute for the provided certificate. If the “use” attribute is missing, edit the metadata file to include it prior to uploading in STA: <md:KeyDescriptor use="signing"> or <md:KeyDescriptor use="encryption">.
SAS-20542	Summary: The following messages that result in denied access for the end user are not logged in SAS: SASIDP_RISK_MANAGER_IS_DOWN; SASIDP_FAILED_TO_COLLECT_CONTEXT_DATA; SASIDP_NOT_AUTHORIZED_TO_ACCESS_APPLICATION; and SASIDP_INVALID_USER. Workaround: None.

SAS-17067	Summary: Upon uploading an invalid Service Provider certificate, the error message provided by STA is too generic for the operator to know that the certificate could not be processed. Workaround: If upon saving an Application in the STA console, the “Failed to update Application Settings” message is presented, then verify that you are using a recent Service Provider certificate (as granted by the SAML Application or Service Provider).
SAS-16998	Summary: STA operator welcome email can take several hours to arrive. (Previously listed as ASCO-1910.) Workaround: None.
SAS-16702	Summary: SAML return attribute groups do not contain parents of nested groups. Workaround: None.

SAS-8174	Summary: In the Token Details panel, the Push OTP state in the Mobile App section only displays the Push OTP state at the time of token enrollment. Workaround: None.
SAS-7237	Summary: A group name gets synced to SAS, even if that group name is already present internally. Workaround: Avoid using same group name in SAS and LDAP.
SAS-5017	Summary: When adding multiple logging agents in the SAS Console, only the first agent added receives logging events, even after it is removed. Workaround:Remove all logging agents, and then re-add only one.
SAS-4827	Summary: User IDs with UTF-8 characters do not display properly. Workaround: This issue exists in certain versions of Internet Explorer only. Using another browser will avoid this display issue.
SAS-4766	Summary: Allowing one logging agent host for a Virtual Server allows all logging agent hosts. Workaround: None.
SAS-3624	Summary: Customizations to email enrollment messages are not saved after being modified, reverting to the default values. Workaround: This issue stems from how certain options are enabled in the SAS Management Console: To customize email messages, you must first set the Customize Email Messages option to Custom under Comms > Communications > Email Messages. To customize the MobilePASS page for self-enrollment, you must clear the Use Inherit Customizations option under Virtual Servers > Self-Service > Set Customization Inherit. To enable both the custom Self-Enrollment email page (Virtual Servers > Comms > Communications > Email Messages > Email Message Type: Self-Enrollment) and the customized MobilePASS page (Virtual Servers > Self-Service > Configure Self-Enrollment Pages), you must disable the Set Customization Inherit option under Virtual Servers > Comms > Custom Branding.
SAS-2708	Summary: Error when adding Shibboleth node if DNS/Host URL is unresolvable. Workaround: None.
SASNOI- 4575	Summary: GrIDsure token policies that have "Use special/symbolic characters" selected are not working with Shibboleth 3.8. Workaround: None.
SASIL-3875	Summary: In cases where a user concurrently initiates two SAML authentication sessions in the same browser: if one of the SAML SP is configured with Enhanced User Login enabled while the other is configured with Enhanced User Login disabled, then the Enhanced User Login user experience may not be provided and authentication may fail. This would only happen if the two SAML authentication sessions are with different user IDs, or if the second session is initiated while the first one has not completed authentication. Workaround: None. This will be fixed in a future release.
SASIL-3326	Summary: Use of Internet Explorer version 8 for SAML authentication provides incorrect formatting, which results in a degraded user experience. Workaround: Use a more recent version of Internet Explorer.
Multiple Tickets	Summary: The help documentation of some of the application templates refer to an assignment procedure that does not apply to STA. Workaround: Ignore the information in the application template help documents about “Enabling SAML Service in the Identity Provider”.
