FAQPage Schema
How do I configure Kanidm for WebAuthn and OAuth2 OIDC single sign-on?

Kanidm secures privileged accounts by enforcing strong credential policies and utilizing WebAuthn for passwordless multi-factor authentication. This approach replaces vulnerable passwords with hardware-backed cryptographic credentials, ensuring robust identity management and access control.

Does Kanidm support LDAP and RADIUS integration for existing infrastructure?

Yes, Kanidm supports LDAP over TLS and RADIUS integration for existing infrastructure. These capabilities allow you to connect legacy network authentication and directory services directly into your modern IAM deployment without abandoning current tools.

What is the best way to manage SSH keys with an identity management system?

The best way to manage SSH keys is by centralizing them within your identity provider using PAM/NSS integration. Kanidm enables structured SSH key management workflows, tying infrastructure access directly to user identities and compliance policies.

How do I set up audit logging and disaster recovery for Kanidm?

You set up audit logging and disaster recovery by following operational playbooks that define monitoring, incident response, and backup procedures. This ensures your identity management environment maintains compliance and can recover from failures.

Can I use Kanidm for identity and access management across cloud and on-premises environments?

Yes, you can use Kanidm for identity and access management across cloud and on-premises environments. It provides structured workflows and deployment patterns designed to unify access control, authorization, and SSO regardless of infrastructure location.
