Symantec Access Management

We have a third-party product that supplies one-time passwords. I understand that this can be integrated with SiteMinder by creating an SDK-based custom authentication. (We are using 12.51 currently.) I have been asked to find out what level of effort should we plan for to create the custom authentication? 20 hours? 40 hours? 80 hours?

Without having the actual detail of the implementation it is impossible to estimate the effort.

As far as developing a simple custom authentication scheme and configuring it to work with SiteMinder could be done in less than 30 mins. But again that's me.

This would chnage depending upon the experience level of the engineer with the Java programming and the SiteMinder

Hi Ujwol,

Even in SM 12.7 two-factor authentication doesn't support out of box with RSA/ OTP, do we need to still develop custom authentication scheme?

Hi,

Most of our customers are using CA Advanced Authentication for providing two factor auth.

If that is not something you would like to pursue then yes custom auth is the only other option.

CA Advanced doesn't have other than x509.Aren't you referring the below one in your trail response?
