Automating SAML Security Tests - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Single Sign-On (SSO) applications are becoming increasingly prevalent in organizations today. While there are many different SSO configuration types, Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is one of the most common in enterprise environments. Unfortunately, the current SAML 2.0 version is complex, and prone to misconfiguration, which can result in critical authentication and authorization vulnerabilities. Most large organizations likely have hundreds or thousands of applications that have been configured with SAML over the past 15 years, and many new applications still choose to incorporate SAML over other options. Because of how SAML is often incorporated into an existing environment, we are provided with a valuable opportunity to programmatically analyze each workflow and follow up with better preventative controls. In this webcast we will explain how an organization can gather an inventory of SAML-based applications, test for vulnerabilities in each workflow, and then effectively validate and report those findings with minimal false positives. We will also shed light on common mistakes that can complicate and slow down a project and provide useful tips and tricks that can help avoid these pitfalls.
