2FA access to DWC or RestAPI

Instead of performing it’s own user/password authentication DWC reads the user from the HTTP header. DWC should be able to restrict the traffic it accepts by IP addresses or DNS names in order to have a trust relation with the proxy.

    The 2FA authentication on the DWC is already supported through the OpenID standard.


    OpenID is a widely used decentralized authentication protocol that allows users to log in to multiple applications with a single set of credentials. In other words we decided not to implement this feature internally to the DWC but to enable it with the identity management tools that all organizations already use in their environment.


    If your identity management tool supports OpenID, it means you can enable two-factor authentication for added security. Users would not only need their usual login credentials but also a secondary authentication factor, such as a verification code sent to their mobile device. This extra layer of security significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and enhances overall protection.
