OpenID Connect (OICD) integration provides the following benefits that greatly increase the flexibility to authenticate providers working with the JFrog Platform.
Passwordless experience: Eliminate the storage of basic credentials, permanent tokens, or API Keys, for example in GitHub Secrets, thereby mitigating security risks.
Dynamic Token Generation: Efficient management of the token lifecycle with automated token generation with short-term lifespans. Significantly reduces the likelihood of outdated or unused tokens in the system, which minimizes security risks.
Consistent Access Control Policies: Consistently apply access control policies with a fine-grained permission model. Enforce the principle of least privilege, which grants only the necessary permissions for specific operations, resulting in a more secure environment.
Improved Developer Experience: Create seamless, efficient, user-friendly, and secure developer workflow by eliminating the need for manual token management to handle and manage tokens manually.
Seemless Access
Provides automatic secure access to JFrog resources without manual token creation.
Reduces Configuration Errors
Use OIDC parameters for authentication configuration and identity mapping.
