Introduction

42Q IAM (Identity Access Management) is the unified login management to the 42Q portal; it provides adaptive solutions to support different policies and guarantee the authentication/authorization with a more secure mode.   This document introduces the two forms of authentication:  

• Enterprise Authentication
• Local Authentication

When the user enters the 42Q portal URL the system redirects to the unified login page:

42Q has two types of Enterprise Authentication: Federated and Non-Federated setups as explained below:

 

 

Enterprise Authentication with Federation Setup 

  42Q IAM supports Federated authentication, this allows users to pass authorized credentials to the portal.   The Enterprise account with federation setup allows users to log in with the UID or email address, if the account is created by email address, users need to log in with their email address.

To access, as an Enterprise Authentication with Federation Setup user, follow the steps below: 

1. Enter UID or email address in the Username field at the unified login page.
2. Select the buttonNext.
3. Enter the Username and Password, then select the Submit button.

Enterprise Authentication without Federation Setup

Enterprise accounts without federation setup will prompt from password and validate credentials with the previously configured enterprise for that instance.  

Users are allowed to log in with their username, the username can be UID or email address. 

To access 42Q, as an Enterprise user without federation, follow the steps below: 

 

1. Enter the Enterprise account in the Username field at the unified login page.
2. Select the Next button.

Forgot Password

When users forget their password, they can reset their password by clicking the Forgot password? link on the landing page is an option is available for Local Users. Once clicked, users will be redirected to the Account Services to reset the password and the user's supervisor or support team will provide assistance for password changes.

 

For Enterprise users, an email will be provided with the following information concerning password changes. An expired link will be emailed to users with a link provided to change the desired password.
