What I meant is the password attributes data type.. for e.g. if I need to 
modify the password on OIM I see the password attribute on OIM when mapping the 
fields on the web service as complexType: multiValuedBinary...

See attached..

Hi Joe,

 

  Sorry – not exactly sure what you’re asking.  Are you asking about what 
authentication types are supported within web services?  Right now it’s 
WSSecurity Username Token 1.0. (Web Services that use Username Token 1.1 can be 
used, if they support 1.0 as well.) as mentioned in the Integrating Guide.

 

  Or are you asking about how passwords are stored within AR System itself 
(ignoring the web services comment)?  If so, technically, passwords aren’t 
stored in AR System – only the hash.  For user passwords, the Password field is 
encrypted into the database by using a one-way hash (SHA1) as mentioned in the 
Configuration Guide.

Just out of curiosity, in case I am playing with web services, and am tasked 
with a password reset web service, the data type passwords must be is a 
base-64. Is this the same standard that the ARS uses? I am not tasked with this 
yet but if we really explore all possible options after getting basic web 
services working that we are attempting, I see this coming up somewhere in the 
future..

 

Joe

It’s not for passwords, no.  It’s over-the-wire encryption of the API.

 

Performance is AES-128

Premium is AES-256

** So the basic is the DES, then the paid for products take over correct? The 
Password is this correct?
So "Performance"  aes-128
and "Premium"  AES-256


Thanks Dave, you always come through..

Encryption that meets FIPS 140-2 requirements is available once you’ve loaded 
the Performance (providing AES-128) or Premium (AES-256) Encryption add-on 
product.

** While I do like it has an encryption tab, this is not FIPS 140-3 compliant , 
DES? is the only encryption.. 

This makes me nervous, as I thought the rest of the system was much higher.. 

Can I get an explanation of the simple encryption, and why?

DES\:b887ddcfd4ab1bb702f6f9470160bdf47239175230d82df74fea1558ca854bf6   <-- 
lets see how fast someone can crack this.
