Solution Summary

This guide describes integrating AWS IAM Identity Center with RSA using SAML 2.0 and SCIM. Use this information to determine which use case and integration type your deployment will employ.

Use Case

AWS IAM Identity Center can be integrated with RSA using SAML My Page, SAML Relying Party, and as a SCIM server. When integrated, users must authenticate with RSA to sign in to AWS IAM Identity Center.  Session tags can be used to incorporate attribute-based access control (ABAC).
    

Integration Types

SSO integrations use SAML 2.0 or HFED technologies to direct users' web browsers to Cloud Access Service (CAS) for authentication. The integration provides Single Sign-On (SSO) using Relying Party and My Page. 
   

• Relying Party integrations use SAML 2.0 to direct users’ web browsers to CAS for authentication. With Relying Party integration, CAS can manage either additional authentication only or both primary authentication (for example, user ID and password) and additional authentication, depending on the service provider's capability.

• My Page provides SSO to AWS IAM Identity Center users leveraging the RSA self-service portal My Page. Both SP-initiated SSO and IdP-initiated SSO are supported.

  Modern Cloud-hosted SSO with My Page replaces the existing SAML SSO support with IDR. 

  Note: RSA recommends using My Page instead of IDR SSO. At a to-be-determined future date, RSA will announce the end-of-life (EOL) date for the SAML SSO support with IDR. For more information, see Available Now: My Page SSO Enhancements. 

SCIM integration allows the administrators of CAS and end users who exist in the CAS Unified Directory to be provisioned in AWS IAM Identity Center. End users can request access to an application in the My Page portal and gain access to the external application, depending on the approver type configured in RSA. Users can also check the status of their submitted requests from My Requests in the My Page portal. 

Supported Features

This section shows all the supported features by integration type and by RSA components. Use this information to determine which integration type and RSA component your deployment will use. The next section in this guide contains the instruction steps for how to integrate RSA with AWS IAM Identity Center using each integration type.

AWS IAM Identity Center Integration with CAS

Configuration Summary

This section contains instruction steps that show how to integrate AWS IAM Identity Center with RSA using all of the integration types. You can configure the integrations (SAML) first and then configure the use case (Session tag).
This document is not intended to suggest optimum installations or configurations. It is assumed that the reader has both working knowledge of all products involved, and the ability to perform the tasks outlined in this section. Administrators should have access to the product documentation for all products to install the required components.
All RSA and AWS IAM Identity Center components must be installed and working prior to the integration.
This section of the guide includes links to the appropriate sections for configuring both sides for each use case.
