Stian Thorgersen

Stian Thorgersen started his career at Arjuna Technologies building a cloud federation platform, years before most companies were even ready for a single-vendor public cloud. He later joined Red Hat, looking for ways to make developers' lives easier, which is where the idea of Keycloak started. In 2013, Stian co-founded the Keycloak project with another developer at Red Hat. Today, Stian is the Keycloak project lead and is also the top contributor to the project. He is still employed by Red Hat as a senior principal software engineer focusing on identity and access management, both for Red Hat and for Red Hat's customers. In his spare time, there is nothing Stian likes more than throwing his bike down the mountains of Norway.

Chapter 11

  1. Keycloak allows you to customize its look and feel entirely, not just for the pages that were presented in this chapter. As we are going to see in Chapter 13Extending Keycloak, you should be able to change the look and feel of pages by changing the different themes provided by Keycloak. You can find more details in the documentation at https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_development/#_themes.
  2. WebAuthn requires you to use a FIDO or FIDO2 compliant security device. You should also consider accessing Keycloak using HTTPS and using a valid domain name. WebAuthn is strict about domain names and secure connections if the server is accessed from a different domain than the client. You should also make sure the browser you are using has support for the WebAuthn API. You should also consider looking at the demo on the WebAuthn site to check how your security device works there.
