Implement MFA using swiyu, the Swiss E-ID with Duende IdentityServer, ASP.NET Core Identity and .NET Aspire
The post shows how to use the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure, (swiyu) as an MFA method 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. Code: https://github.com/swiss-ssi-group/swiyu-idp-mfa-aspire-aspnetcore Blogs in this […]
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 […]
Use EdDSA signatures to validate tokens in ASP.NET Core using OpenID Connect
Some identity providers use the EdDSA / ED25519 algorithm to sign and issue tokens. This post shows how to validate the tokens using the Nuget package from ScottBrady and ASP.NET Core. Using the default OpenID Connect setup, the keys are not read and the tokens cannot be validated. The error message could return something like […]
Issue and verify credentials using the Swiss Digital identity public beta, ASP.NET Core and .NET Aspire
This post shows how to issue and verify identities (verifiable credentials) using the Swiss Digital identity and trust infrastructure, (swiyu), ASP.NET Core and .NET Aspire. The swiyu infrastructure is implemented using the provided generic containers which implement the OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance and the OpenID for Verifiable Presentations standards as well as many other […]
Revisiting using a Content Security Policy (CSP) nonce in Blazor
This blog looks at implementing a strong Content Security Policy (CSP) in web applications implemented using Blazor and ASP.NET Core. When implementing CSP, I always recommend using a CSP nonce or at least CSP hashes. If a technical stack does not support CSP nonces, you should probably avoid using this solution when implementing secure and […]
Implement client assertions with client credentials flow using OAuth DPoP
This blog looks at implementing client assertions for the client credentials flow using OAuth 2.0 Demonstration of Proof-of-Possession (DPoP). The client credentials flow is an OAuth 2.0 authorization grant type used for machine-to-machine authentication. DPoP further strengthens the security by ensuring that the client possesses a specific key at the time of the request, forcing […]
Implement Phone verification, 2FA using ASP.NET Core Identity
This post shows how to implement phone (SMS) verification and two-factor authentication (2FA) using ASP.NET Core Identity. The solution integrates phone-based verification and 2FA mechanisms. The implementation uses ASP.NET Core Identity’s extensibility to incorporate SMS-based verification during user registration and login processes. SMS is no longer a recommended authentication method due to security risks but […]
Customizing a single client sign-in using parameters in Duende IdentityServer
This post looks at customizing the sign-in UI and the sign-in options in an ASP.NET Core application using Duende IdentityServer and ASP.NET Core Identity. There are multiple ways of changing the look and feel of the UI for different OpenID Connect clients or different client flows. In the previous post, the UI was customized per […]
ASP.NET Core delegated OAuth Token Exchange access token management
This blog shows how to implement a delegated OAuth 2.0 Token Exchange RFC 8693 flow in ASP.NET Core, and has a focus on access token management. It looks at how the OAuth Token Exchange can be implemented and how an application can request delegated access tokens on behalf of a user and another application, providing […]
Multiple client sign-in customizations using Duende identity provider
This post looks at customizing the sign-in UI and the sign-in options in an ASP.NET Core application using Duende IdentityServer and ASP.NET Core Identity. There are multiple ways of changing the look and feel of the UI for different OpenID Connect clients or different client flows. Code: https://github.com/damienbod/duende-multi-tenant Blogs in the series Setup The solution […]
