Hi Harry,
First of all, thank you for the suggestion and also the way you have
described it. It helps us better understand what you need and the rationale!
I added both items (the account selector and the email under the profile
name) to our list of requested features. We will assess all them, and
see what is feasible and how.
In the meantime, it would be good to see who else in the list finds
these features important, by replying to this thread.
Best regards,
Theodoros

Hi Theodoros,
Thank you for your email.
I’m an IT contractor who now works with a few different entities who
are all RIPE members and have separate accounts in the portal/SSO.
If possible (and I suspect this might be a tricky integration to get
right), I’d like to see a way (much like Google) where I can be signed
into multiple RIPE accounts at once and then easily switch between
them via a drop down in the menu under my name:
Instead of just providing “Log out”, there could be a list of all the
entities to which I am attached there and the option to switch to/log
out of each entity (and of course add a new entity). I do think there
would then need to be a clear message somewhere to state which entity
is being looked at to prevent incorrect changes being made to the
wrong organisation.
I do suspect this isn’t something that will be amazingly popular, but
it’s an issue I’ve been caught up on a couple of times – the other
option would be to maybe add the email address to the name line if
that would be easier to integrate.
Thanks
Harry

*Subject: *[ncc-announce] [service] Request for feedback about the new
RIPE NCC Access Single Sign-On solution
Dear colleagues,
At the RIPE NCC we are constantly working to improve the security of our
services, both internal and external. This is reflected in the work we
have planned for our business applications in the coming period,
specifically the modernisation of RIPE NCC Access
(https://access.ripe.net).
RIPE NCC Access is the Single Sign-On (SSO) solution that we use to
authenticate and authorise users to access our applications. It is a
combination of a third-party identity provider and an application that
we have developed in-house. Thanks in part to the feedback we have
received over the past few years, we have identified several issues with
the current solution and, in response, we have begun to review its
architecture and assess possible improvements.
We would like to involve our community early and ask for your feedback
on this topic. Are there any features that you think are important for
our SSO solution? What are you missing in the current solution? We value
your feedback and look forward to hearing from you!
You can share your ideas either by posting them on the ncc-services
mailing list or by sending me an email at [email protected].
Kind regards,
Theodoros
