| Marian | Hey | 18:50 |
|---|---|---|
| Marian | I am looking for a white paper that illustrates the risks with authentication. can anyone guide? | 18:51 |
| nowen | he | 19:06 |
| nowen | hi | 19:06 |
| nowen | Marian: you're looking for the risks of using passwords? | 19:06 |
| Marian | not really | 19:37 |
| Marian | i mean in general, risks associated with authentication | 19:37 |
| Marian | what are the risks of not using proper authentication | 19:37 |
| Marian | in differnt industries | 19:37 |
| Marian | so if you have link to any whitepapers,etc itwould be of great help | 19:38 |
| nowen | I don't really have anything like that | 20:01 |
| nowen | you can search the blog, where most of that stuff would be | 20:01 |
| gvidals_ | ownen i have a customer that i want to create one user for on my wikid server. | 20:03 |
| nowen | hehe | 20:03 |
| nowen | ;) | 20:03 |
| nowen | ok | 20:03 |
| gvidals_ | there is no extra cost if do this right? | 20:04 |
| nowen | I guess not, you have 10 user license, right? | 20:04 |
| nowen | what kind of network client do they need? | 20:04 |
| gvidals_ | they would use wikid on their windows desktop and then authenticate against openvpn. | 20:05 |
| nowen | where is the openvpn server? | 20:06 |
| gvidals_ | the openvpn server is under my control in the data center. | 20:06 |
| nowen | ok | 20:06 |
| nowen | just checking that the wikid > openvpn connection would be secure | 20:07 |
| gvidals_ | wikid server <=====> openVPN <------ customer on windoze. | 20:07 |
| *** Marian has quit (Quit: Page closed) | 20:07 | |
| nowen | where do they want to go on the vpn connection? more of your stuff? | 20:07 |
| gvidals_ | yea, they need to log into my servers | 20:08 |
| nowen | ok | 20:08 |
| nowen | makes sense | 20:08 |
| gvidals_ | i'm using this set up now for other customers and I assumed that wikid to openvpn communication is secure. am i wrong about this? | 20:08 |
| nowen | so, you're just hosting a cloud-based wikid server. no problem | 20:08 |
| gvidals_ | yes, that's right. cloud-based wikid. | 20:08 |
| nowen | radius is only encoded, not encrypted | 20:09 |
| gvidals_ | even though your prices are excellent. i've noticed that some start ups or individual (consultants) would rather just pay a small fee and don't need the full wikid server. | 20:09 |
| gvidals_ | nor are they tech savvy enough to manage it. | 20:09 |
| nowen | sure | 20:09 |
| gvidals_ | so wikid <====> openvpn will be safe. i know what to do. i'll just ensure that the communication between the two is on the private LAN :-) | 20:10 |
| gvidals_ | that'll work. | 20:10 |
| nowen | yes | 20:10 |
