Use Aspire to implement and deploy the BFF security architecture
This blog demonstrates how to use Aspire to set up a solution for developing and deploying an ASP.NET Core web application with Auth0 as the identity provider and a downstream API. The application uses Angular for the frontend and is secured using a Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) architecture. Code: https://github.com/damienbod/Auth0BffDpopApi Blogs in this series Target setup In […]
Implement BFF using Auth0, Angular and ASP.NET Core
This post should how to implement a web application which needs secure access and secure identities. The application uses Angular as the UI tech, ASP.NET Core as the backend tech and a backend for frontend security architecture using OpenID Connect, OAuth and Auth0 as the identity provider.

Implement SAML as an external provider in an ASP.NET Core Identity application using Duende as an OIDC server
This article shows how to implement a SAML federation from an ASP.NET Core Identity application using Sustainsys.Saml2.AspNetCore2. Entra ID is used to implement the SAML authentication and the users can authenticate from the tenant. Code: https://github.com/damienbod/DuendeEntraSaml Setup Three components are used to implement this demo, a web application that authenticates using OpenID Connect, an ASP.NET […]

Isolate the swiyu Public Beta management APIs using YARP
This post looks at hardening the security for the swiyu public beta infrastructure. The generic containers provide both management APIs and wallet APIs which support the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations 1.0 specification. The management APIs require both network protection and application security. This post looks at implementing the network isolation. Code: https://github.com/swiss-ssi-group/swiyu-passkeys-idp-loi-loa Blogs in this […]
Use client assertions in ASP.NET Core using OpenID Connect, OAuth DPoP and OAuth PAR
This post looks at implement client assertions in an ASP.NET Core application OpenID Connect client using OAuth Demonstrating Proof of Possession (DPoP) and OAuth Pushed Authorization Requests (PAR). Code: https://github.com/swiss-ssi-group/swiyu-passkeys-idp-loi-loa Blogs in this series: Setup An ASP.NET code application is setup to authentication using OpenID Connect and OAuth PAR. The web application is an OIDC […]
Force step up authentication in web applications
The post shows how to implement a step up authorization using the OAuth 2.0 Step Up Authentication Challenge Protocol RFC 9470. The application uses ASP.NET Core to implement the API, the web application and the identity provider. Duende IdentityServer is used to implement the OpenID Connect server standard and also OAuth DPoP token binding as […]
Implementing Level of Authentication (LoA) with ASP.NET Core Identity and Duende
This post shows how to implement an application which requires a user to authenticate using passkeys. The identity provider returns three claims to prove the authentication level (loa), the identity level, (loi) and the amr claim showing the used authentication method. Code: https://github.com/swiss-ssi-group/swiyu-passkeys-idp-loi-loa Blogs in this series: The amr claim and the loa claim returns […]
Implement forgot your password using swiyu, ASP.NET Core Identity and Aspire
This post show to implement a “Forgot your password” flow using the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure, (swiyu) in an ASP.NET Core web application using ASP.NET Core Identity and Duende IdentityServer. The generic containers from swiyu are used to integrate the Swiss E-ID and the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations standards. .NET Aspire is used […]
Use swiyu, the Swiss E-ID to authenticate users with Duende and .NET Aspire
This post shows how to authenticate users using Duende IdentityServer and ASP.NET Core Identity which verifies identities (verifiable digital credentials) using the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure (swiyu). The swiyu infrastructure is implemented using the provided generic containers which implement the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations standards as well as many other standards for implementing […]
