Use one set of credentials to authenticate across all Kubernetes clusters, internal management interfaces, and OIDC-supported tools.
Preconfigured for Asergo tools
Tools provided by Asergo is preconfigured with OIDC and managed from the Asergo dashboard.
Manage claims and roles
Configure OIDC scope/claims from your Asergo dashboard to manage permission levels and roles.
Cost-Effective & Ready to Use
Included with every Asergo account, no extra setup or hidden costs. Deploy enterprise-grade security instantly.
Third-Party Application Support
Extend authentication to popular tools like Harbor, Grafana, and others, reducing credential sprawl and simplifying user management.
Flow
Create and Configure a OIDC client application
Login to Asergo dashboard
Create new OIDC client for your application
Configure the client scopes and redirect URIs from the dashboard
Configure your application to use the OIDC client information
Centralized Access Management for Kubernetes administrators
For Kubernetes administrators, the solution offers particularly valuable capabilities. It
allows for the configuration of secure, centralized access to kubectl using
existing Asergo credentials.
This integration helps maintain consistent security policies across all clusters, reducing potential
vulnerabilities that might arise from disparate authentication systems while simplifying access
management for operations teams.
Critical Authentication Scenarios for Kubernetes environments
The Identity Provider addresses critical authentication scenarios for Kubernetes
environments. It enables secure, role-based cluster access through kubectl with
fine-grained permissions while maintaining consistent RBAC policies across all clusters.
The solution supports service-to-service authentication within containerized applications and
provides easy-to-implement OpenID integration for custom tools.
