Keycloak session at Red Hat Summit and DevNation

When securing applications and services there are a lot of challenges you will encounter. Most of these are applicable to you both if you are developing new applications or if you already have existing security solutions in place.

Challenges you'll encounter include:

  • Keeping user passwords safe
  • Single-Sign On/Out
  • Multi-factor authentication
  • Social logins
  • Mobile devices
  • Public APIs
  • Managing users, permissions and sessions
  • Integrating with existing infrastructure such as LDAP server
  • Integrating with partners solutions

In the Keycloak session available to both Summit and DevNation attendees we'll talk about how it doesn't have to be hard to solve these challenges. In fact it can be quite simple by using Keycloak, an open source Identity and Access Management solution from Red Hat JBoss. We'll show how Keycloak can be used to secure a modern architecture, including HTML5 applications, mobile applications and RESTful services. We'll also show how you can leverage the integration features provided by Keycloak to integrate with existing security infrastructure and partners.
