How to implement security for Healthcare applications and systems using Passkeys

 

Dear experts, 

I am pleased to share my latest white paper published on ResearchGate:

 "Next-Generation Identity Security in Healthcare: A Passkey-Based Approach"

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/391591235_Next-Generation_Identity_Security_in_Healthcare_A_Passkey-Based_Approach

In this paper, I explore how passkeys and asymmetric cryptography can revolutionize authentication frameworks in healthcare — moving beyond traditional passwords towards phishing-resistant, device-bound, and biometrics-enabled security models. I also discuss integration strategies with existing healthcare IAM systems, real-world deployment challenges, and future directions like quantum-resilient passkey evolution.

🔹 I would greatly appreciate feedback, insights, or discussion points from cybersecurity, healthcare IT, and identity management professionals.

 🔹 Your perspectives on real-world challenges, emerging trends, and implementation considerations would be highly valuable!

Thank you in advance to all the cybersecurity experts and IAM practitioners willing to give this a read!

AI-Powered Cybersecurity for Safeguarding Electronic Health Records from Deepfake Biometric Attacks

 

 

 I’m excited to share my latest research publication now available on ResearchGate:
🔗 Read the full paper here

In this white paper, I explore a critical and emerging threat in healthcare cybersecurity — the risk of deepfake biometric attacks targeting Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems.
As healthcare organizations increasingly adopt biometrics like facial recognition and voice authentication for user access, adversaries are beginning to exploit AI-generated deepfakes to impersonate legitimate users.

This paper introduces an AI-powered cybersecurity framework designed to safeguard sensitive healthcare data by integrating real-time liveness detection, behavioral biometrics, and anomaly risk scoring into EHR authentication workflows.
I also discuss key challenges, system architecture, and future directions for securing healthcare identity systems against evolving deepfake threats.

🔹 If you are working in healthcare cybersecurity, identity management, or AI risk mitigation, I welcome your feedback and thoughts on this important and fast-evolving area!

Thank you for reading and engaging with this important topic.
Feel free to share your insights or experiences related to biometric security!

PingFederate: OAuth implementation approaches

Hello IAM Learners

It is common to use claims based authentication in recent times for any SSO integrations using OAuth/OpenID connect standards. 

For OAuth implementation in PingFederate, you could create multiple Access Token Manager and map it to adapter if you have multiple HTML adapters in the deployment, otherwise if you just single HTML Adapter used by all OAuth applications then you don't need any of these I am referring to below.

OAuth request coming from Application can be intercepted and processed in PingFederate using two approaches; OAuthSelector or HTTP Header selector. Both of these approaches requires to use Ping authentication policies.

OAuth Client Set Authentication Selector: All OAuth client IDs should be added in this selector as Client.   

HTTP Request Parameter Name: All OAuth client IDs should be added in this selector as parameter values.

There is another selector OAuth Scope Authentication Selector that will be used for OAuth implementations if you have a requirement to trigger the authentication flow based on client scope. 

 

Identifier First Adapter: PingFederate

Hello IAM Experts

Today, I would like to talk about Identifier First Adapter and how it can be addressed for variety of use cases.

Identifier First Adapter is available out-of-the-box in PingFederate 9.3 version and above. This adapter uses HTML template in the back-end which can be customized as per Org needs and it captures the user identifier (could be email or userid) and it uses two attributes Subject and Domain. 

Domain is typically the user email address. Additional attributes can be added to this adapter as needed. 

Some of the use cases:

1. This adapter can be used if the organization has a requirement to display separate branded login page based on email address or user domain.  
2. This adapter can be used if you need to separate the authentication flow or trigger additional security mechanism based on userid or email address. 

HTML template also uses velocity template which can be customized with HTML/JS as per Org needs.
