All,

We have been using JaSig and now Apereo cas for almost 10 years. I wanted to implement a custom authentication handler which can support Google MFA - so auth we can automate user’s login over self sign up and get rid of complex password policy.

So we ended up writing our own custom authentication handler which talks to a rails based server for authenticating user name and token.

Just wanted to let people know, and help out someone who is facing any issues with CustomAuthentication Handler.

Here is URL for project. 

Thanks
Ajey

Google Authenticator is supported OOTB for MFA starting with CAS 5. I’d suggest you start there, and remove all your custom work, unless it’s something super special the baseline can’t handle for you. (In which case, let’s talk and see if it’s reasonable to make it behave that way)

Misagh,

Nice to hear from you, We wanted it to hit Google MFA Rest based service. And that's why we just wrote a Custom Authentication handler which points to above service and get's token authorised, since we need to save security code some where else as well.
