Configuring Okta Parent topic

Okta is a standards-compliant OAuth 2.0 authorization server that provides cloud identity solutions for your organization. Okta is a single sign-on provider that allows you to manage user access to Deep Discovery Web Inspector.
This section describes how to configure Okta as a SAML (2.0) identity provider for Deep Discovery Web Inspector to use.
Before you begin configuring Okta, make sure that:
  • You have a valid subscription with Okta that handles the sign-in process and that eventually provides the authentication credentials to the Deep Discovery Web Inspector management console.
  • You are logged on to the management console as a Deep Discovery Web Inspector administrator.

Procedure

  1. Log in to your Okta organization as a user with administrative privileges.
  2. Click Admin in the upper right, and then navigate to Applications → Applications.
  3. Click Add Application, and then click Create New App.
    The Create a New Application Integration screen appears.
  4. Select Web as the Platform and SAML 2.0 as the Sign on method, and then click Create.
  5. On the General Settings screen, type a name for Deep Discovery Web Inspector in App name, for example, "Deep Discovery Web Inspector", and click Next.
  6. On the Configure SAML screen, specify the following:
    1. Type or copy the Deep Discovery Web Inspector Single Sign On URL in the Single sign on URL field.
    2. Select Use this for Recipient URL and Destination URL.
    3. Specify the Audience URI in Audience URI (SP Entity ID) based on your serving site.
    4. For Assertion Encryption, select Encrypted.
    5. For Encryption Certificate, click Browse files to select the certificate file that you obtained from Deep Discovery Web Inspector.

      Note
      Note
      Specify the Name by using the Logon group attribute configured in the Identity provider service of Deep Discovery Web Inspector. The default Logon group attribute of Deep Discovery Web Inspector is memberOf, so the Name here is set to memberOf for example.
      • Name: memberOf
      • Filter: Matches regex ^(.*)*$
    7. Click Next.
  7. On the Feedback screen, click I'm an Okta customer adding an internal app, select This is an internal app that we have created, and then click Finish.

  9. Assign the application to groups and add people to groups.
    1. Select Directory → Groups.
    2. Click the groups that you want to assign the application to, and then click Manage Apps.
      The Assign Applications screen appears.
    3. Locate Deep Discovery Web Inspector you added and click Assign.
    4. Click Manage People.
      The Add People to Groups screen appears.
    5. Locate the user you want to allow access to Deep Discovery Web Inspector and add the user to the Deep Discovery Web Inspector group.
    6. Confirm that the application is assigned to the user and group.
      After assigning an application to a group, the system automatically assigns the application to all users in the group.
    7. Repeat the above steps to assign the application to more groups as necessary.
    You are now ready to configure Okta for single sign-on and create the required SAML groups in the Deep Discovery Web Inspector management console.
