Moodle Authentication
The ReCRED campus Wi-Fi Pilot is a security architecture which employs the ReCRED modules in order to control the user access to the campus Wi-Fi network and to the associated web services.
The first scenario addressed by the Wi-Fi pilot consists in students and professors accessing the network services by presenting a minimal set of trustworthy attributes. In this context, the following demonstrator presents the case of a student authenticating to the online e-learning platform of the university, using the ReCRED android-based application. When the user requests to authenticate with ReCRED, instead of the traditional user-name/password way, the user is redirected to the ReCRED authentication web-based platform and presented with a QR code. When the user reads this QR code using the ReCRED android-based application, and successfully authetnicates with his fingerprint, then, the user allows ReCRED to act as an Identity Provider transfering user attributes over OpenID Connect to Moodle, which is acting as the Service Provider.
