Client Authentication

•

•

Client Authentication Page

Introduction

Change Auditor has the following authentication methods:

•

Windows Forms Authentication (enabled by default)

When users log in, the current Windows logon user security context is used to authenticate with the coordinator. Typically, user account and password are not required.

•

Active Directory Client Certificate Authentication

When users log in, they must specify a smart card or certificate. User account and password are not required.

Certificate authentication for client coordinator communication.

Client Authentication Page

The Client Authentication page is displayed when Client Authentication is selected from the Configuration task list in the navigation pane of the Administration Tasks tab.

From this page, you can define the authentication method required to access a particular Change Auditor installation.

Windows Forms Authentication

When this option is enabled, Change Auditor uses the standard login entry form where users specify login Windows credentials in both the clients. Credentials are securely verified with Active Directory to authenticate user access to Change Auditor. The current Windows logon user security context is used to authenticate with the coordinator. Typically, user account and password are not required.

Active Directory Client Certificate Authentication

When this option is enabled, authentication is performed using smart cards or certificates associated with Active Directory users. This permits users to log into clients using Smart Card-based authentication technologies.


	NOTE: If you are having issues using the web client, ensure that Active Directory Client Certificate Authentication is set to enabled in IIS configuration at the server level. Also verify that your IIS server certificates are correctly configured.

Once this option has been selected users will be prompted for credentials each time they log in. They can enter a user name and password or connect using a smart card and enter their personal identification number.


	NOTE: Smart card authentication is used only to log on to Change Auditor clients. For any other areas within Change Auditor where you are required to supply credentials (such as agent deployment and management, template creation, and restore values), you must enter a user name and password.


	IMPORTANT: Changing the authentication method affects all clients and requires an update and re-deployment of some components. Because of this, you should only modify the authentication method as part of an overall change to the Change Auditor deployment as a result of new requirements or architectural changes.
