Authentication
Deyel keeps a register of all the users that are enabled to use the product, collecting their identifying data (user code, alias, email address) their personal and labor data, their state, etc.
The procedure of authentication ensures that all use of Deyel and its solutions are made by “someone” or “something” that can be identified as a user, inside the user register.
Also, to ensure that “someone” or “something” is who they say they are, their user or alias and their password must be informed.
Deyel uses different authentication methods but in each context only one of them should be used.
The mechanism of authentication to be used is defined in the configuration of the Deyel execution environment.
This is the predetermined method of authentication. Deyel verifies that the user exists in its register and verifies the password, which is stored encrypted in its data base.
When an organization uses directory services to register its users, Deyel can be configured to delegate in LDAP the authentication process.
Deyel implements this type of authentication by integrating with an external Identity Manager and delegating user authentication to it.
Deyel implements this type of authentication integrating with Google. When an organization uses Google accounts for their users, the authentication process can be delegated to Google.
This kind of authentication delegates the authentication of the users to an advanced rule.
Allows an organization to use simultaneously different types of authentication.
