otp resets

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings. 

FAS2 (The old account system) supported 2fa tokens, but they were not in
the main interface, you had to go and find a infra sop and go to the
right place or run the right command line tool. This was fine as the
only thing we were using them for was sudo (so only sysadmins were
affected). In order to reset a token in this setup, we required a gpg
encrypted email or other proof of you being who you say you are before
resetting. Since this was admins, it was just a few per month (if that).

In the new account system, they are integrated right into the interface,
so tons of people are playing around with them. A number of folks are
not able to properly save their token, or run into problems adding it
and need to have that token removed so they can try again. Many of these
are new users that don't have a gpg key set in their account. We have
been getting a lot of these of late. ;( 

So, the questions are: 

1. How can we cut down on the people who are not able to enroll/run into
problems with their token requesting removal?

Random thoughts: 
* Could we require someone enter their password + token before accepting
the token? ie, they try and enroll, ipa adds it, they have to verify, if
they can't, it's removed?
* Could we add 'recovery codes' so if someone enrolls and it's
wrong/broken, they could use a code to login and add a new token and
remove the old broken one?
* Could we perhaps make a 'dev' noggin that people could test with and
wipe all accounts from every day or something? Then ask people to test
there if they are unsure how to add otp
* Could we 'hide' the otp setup until you have X groups or something?

2. How can we verify identity on people who request the removal of their
last otp? Do we just tell them to make a new account?

Random ideas:

* If they are not in any groups, how about we just reset based on email?
* Or perhaps if they are not in any sysadmin* groups?
* If they are Red Hat employees we can use the internal verify thing
* We could use gpg signed email if there is a gpg key assigned to the
account. 
* Could we use ssh key to verify them? 

Any thoughts welcome.
