Build advanced authentication solutions for any cloud or web environment

Active Directory has been transformed to reflect the cloud revolution, modern protocols, and today’s newest SaaS paradigms. This is an authoritative, deep-dive guide to building Active Directory authentication solutions for these new environments. Author Vittorio Bertocci drove these technologies from initial concept to general availability, playing key roles in everything from technical design to documentation. In this book, he delivers comprehensive guidance for building complete solutions. For each app type, Bertocci presents high-level scenarios and quick implementation steps, illuminates key concepts in greater depth, and helps you refine your solution to improve performance and reliability. He helps you make sense of highly abstract architectural diagrams and nitty-gritty protocol and implementation details. This is the book for people motivated to become experts.

Active Directory Program Manager Vittorio Bertocci shows you how to:

Address authentication challenges in the cloud or on-premises
Systematically protect apps with Azure AD and AD Federation Services
Power sign-in flows with OpenID Connect, Azure AD, and AD libraries
Make the most of OpenID Connect’s middleware and supporting classes
Work with the Azure AD representation of apps and their relationships
Provide fine-grained app access control via roles, groups, and permissions
Consume and expose Web APIs protected by Azure AD
Understand new authentication protocols without reading complex spec documents

About the Author

Vittorio Bertocci is principal program manager on the Azure Active Directory team, where he works on the developer experience: Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL), OpenID Connect and OAuth2 OWIN components in ASP.NET, Azure AD integration in various Visual Studio work streams, and other things he can’t tell you about (yet). Vittorio joined the product team after years as a virtual member in his role as principal architect evangelist, during which time he contributed to the inception and launch of Microsoft’s claims-based platform components (Windows Identity Foundation, ADFS 2.0) and owned SaaS and identity evangelism for the .NET developers community.

Vittorio holds a Master's degree in computer science and began his career doing research on computational geometry and scientific visualization. In 2001 he joined Microsoft Italy, where he focused on the .NET platform and the nascent field of web services security, becoming a recognized expert at the national and European level.

Vittorio is easy to spot at conferences. He has spoken about identity in 23 countries on four continents, from keynote addresses to one-on-one meetings with customers. Vittorio is a regular speaker at Ignite, Build, Microsoft PDC, TechEd (US, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan), TechDays, Gartner Summit, European Identity Conference, IDWorld, OreDev, NDC, IASA, Basta, and many others. At the moment his Channel 9 speaker page at https://channel9.msdn.com/events/speakers/vittorio-bertocci lists 44 recordings.

Vittorio is a published author, both in the academic and industry worlds, and has written many articles and papers. He is the author of Programming Windows Identity Foundation (Microsoft Press, 2010) and coauthor of "A Guide to Claims-Based Identity and Access Control" (Microsoft patterns & practices, 2010) and Understanding Windows Cardspace (Addison-Wesley, 2008). He is a prominent authority and blogger on identity, Azure, .NET development, and related topics: he shares his thoughts at www.cloudidentity.com and via his twitter feed, http://www.twitter.com/vibronet.

Vittorio lives in the lush green of Redmond with his wife, Iwona. He doesn’t mind the gray skies too much, but every time he has half a chance, he flies to some place on the beach, be it the South Pacific or Camogli, his home town in Italy.

Required Reading for Microsoft Developers

Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2016

Verified Purchase

Vittorio is a well-known expert in the field of web application authentication with Azure Active Directory (AAD) and Active Directory Federated Services (ADFS). That expertise comes shining through in this book, which is a great combination of history, theory, and hands-on exercises. This book meets a serious need in the community for better understanding of Open Authentication (OAuth) and OpenID Connect. In my opinion, the general lack of understanding within some corners of the development community is preventing organizations from effectively moving to the cloud because their development teams do not understand how to make the transition with mission-critical applications. I routinely see code intended for use with Windows authentication being applied to web applications, and developers can't figure out what's wrong. If you cannot adequately explain OAuth and OpenID Connect, if you can't implement these technologies in both server-side and client-side apps, then get this book and read it cover to cover. This book has the information you need to be relevant in a cloud world.

This book does a great job explaining the foundations of Azure Application models and the concepts of modern auth in that context. I’ve learned a lot more from this book than I did reading docs

Just finished reading the book! An awesome read! Historical throwback into the evolution of identity solutions/services is great, the depth and examples/gotchas provided throughout are spot on. Even though the book was published in 2016 it is a recommended read for Azure Active Directory and developers implementing various identity flows/scenarios in web apps! Well done, Author!

great overview claims-based authentication and OAuth 2.0

Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2017

Verified Purchase

This book is ostensibly about Azure AD, and the code samples are all in C#, but it could have just as accurately been entitled "Everything a Modern Developer Needs to Know About Claims-based Authentication, OAuth 2.0, Open ID Connect, and Related Technologies." The conceptual overview material is fantastic - I finally feel like I "get" the details of OAuth2! Highly recommended.

Tremendously helpful book that covers information about some of the inner workings of authentication with Azure AD that are hard to come by. Also helpful background on some of the why's of the protocols and implementation choices in Azure AD. I'd recommend this book to anyone building apps (or even just administering) with Azure AD and wants to really understand what is going on.

Hard to use to do anything practical. Simultaneously covers everything - every platform, every application type all mish-mashed together. Nobody sits down to write five different applications at the same time while they are learning.

Excellent Identity Review

Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2016

Verified Purchase

This book was well written and clearly lays out the structure of the various standards as well as outlining the various ways that authentication systems are built and used. Chapter Two clearly defines all the identity systems and how they have been used and how WS-* morphed out of usage except in government areas such as CJIS. The examples demonstrate how OWIN plays within web applications and Azure.

Great read providing the right level of detail

Reviewed in Germany on December 11, 2017

Verified Purchase

From my point of view working with cloud identity providers is a tricky task which requires you to have an in-depth understanding of the underlying protocols. The cookbook examples make things look simple. However in the real world things become intricate particularly when you start interacting with third-party cloud service providers. Being a hands-on development book the author provides essential details on OAuth 2.0 and Open ID connect so that you are not forced to resort to the specifications. In the one or other case I read parts of the specifications however the book is pretty much self-contained and gives you everything you need in order to be up and running with Azure AD.

After reviewing a lot of online material including Pluralsight courses, I finally realised that I didn't understand enough about how to use ADAL with Azure AD. I found this book by Vittorio which I decided to invest my time in reading. The book is well written and easy to read. Having read it and implemented the examples, I have a much better understanding and feel like I have 'climbed over a mountain' and now can get on with writing the apps that I want.
