Policies Overview

What are the Policies in miniOrange?

The Authentication Policy in the admin dashboard binds an Application to a User Group so they can access the application. In the admin dashboard, you can create or add policies, edit them, manage passwords, restrict users, and even delete them if required.

When creating a new policy, the admins have to select the application and create new policies accordingly along with it, they have to identify the user group they want to attach the respective policies. They can also choose to enable MFA or Adaptive MFA for the policies.

In case, multiple policies are created for an application with multiple groups and the user is part of all of these groups then a weight-based algorithm finds the policy with the highest score for the login session. Policies with custom groups are given priority over policies with the DEFAULT group.

The image below shows how the policy works in a login flow.

Key points to note about policies:

• You can create only one policy for an application with a specific group.
• You can create multiple policies for an application with multiple groups.
