Create a Resource Rule

You must add a resource rule to allow users to access Instant ID as a Service. Be sure to review the information in Manage Resource Rules before you begin.

Create a resource rule to protect access to your application.

  1. Select Main Menu > Resources > Resource Rule. The Resource Rules List page appears.
  2. Enter a Rule Name. Resource rules are applied alphabetically. For example, a resource rule name "Administration Portal - Administrators" is considered first if a second resource rule is named Operators.
  3. Enter a Rule Description.
  4. Select the Groups for which the resource rule applies. If you do not select any groups, then all groups are selected by default.
  5. Select the First Factor from the drop-down list.
    • If you select Skip Password, then a user must authenticate using a second factor. You must select at least one second factor if you select Skip Password.
    • If you select Password, then a user must authenticate first using their Instant ID as a Service password and then respond to the second factor authentication challenge. If you select first factor password and do not select any second factor authenticators, users authenticate using their password only.
  6. Select the Second Factors.
    • OTP: Users respond to a one-time password authentication.
    • Entrust Soft Token Push: Users respond to a push notification on their mobile device by pressing Confirm on their Entrust Soft Token.
    • Software Token: Users enter a token passcode generated on their Entrust Soft Token.
    • Temporary Access Code: Users enter their temporary access code.
  7. Drag and drop the order of second factors. This is the order in which a user is presented second factor authentication.
  8. Click Submit.
