Splunk Cloud - RSA Ready Implementation Guide
2 years ago
Certified: May 28, 2024

Solution Summary

This guide describes Splunk Cloud integration with RSA (or ID Plus) using SAML 2.0. Use this information to determine which use case and integration type your deployment will employ.

Use Case

Splunk Cloud can be integrated with RSA using My Page SSO. When integrated, users must authenticate with RSA to sign in to Splunk Cloud.
 

Integration Types

My Page SSO provides Single-Sign-On (SSO) to Splunk Cloud users' leveraging RSA self-service portal My Page. IdP-initiated SSO is supported.
Modern Cloud-hosted SSO with My Page replaces the existing SAML SSO support with the IDR.

Supported Features

This section shows all the supported features by integration type and by RSA components. Use this information to determine which integration type and RSA component your deployment will use. The next section in this guide contains the instruction steps for how to integrate RSA with Splunk Cloud using each integration type.

Configuration Summary

This section contains instruction steps that show how to integrate Splunk Cloud with RSA using all of the integration types.
This document is not intended to suggest optimum installations or configurations. It is assumed that the reader has both working knowledge of all products involved, and the ability to perform the tasks outlined in this section. Administrators should have access to the product documentation for all products to install the required components.
All RSA and Splunk Cloud components must be installed and working prior to the integration.

Known Issues

The Splunk platform may display the error "Verification of SAML assertion using IdP's certificate provided failed. 
Error: "failed to verify signature with cert." This occurs because the platform requires a certificate that includes root, intermediate, and leaf components. 
The default X.509 certificate generated from the relying party configuration does the not include all three parts and does not allow generating a new certificate bundle like the My Page configuration. For more details, refer to: Splunk Community
