Implementing Single Sign-On for Mastercard

Single Sign-On for Mastercard

miniOrange + Mastercard

Mastercard, a global leader in payment technology, stands as one of the largest corporations worldwide in its sector. Operating on a global scale, Mastercard facilitates secure and efficient financial transactions, driving innovation in payment technology and supporting economic growth.

Problem:

Mastercard faced the challenge of implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) across a diverse range of environments, encompassing both Atlassian and non-Atlassian platforms. This included essential tools such as Crowd, Jenkins, Nexus, and Sonarqube. The objective was to seamlessly integrate these systems with their Identity Provider (IDP) while centralizing user and group management through Crowd.

Solution:

miniOrange took a customized approach to meet Mastercard's distinct needs. Leveraging specialized plugins such as Crowd SAML and Crowd Connectors tailored for Jenkins, Nexus, and Sonarqube, miniOrange crafted a holistic solution to seamlessly implement Single Sign-On (SSO) across all of Mastercard's instances. This bespoke solution not only enabled SSO functionality but also ensured centralized user management, enhancing efficiency and security throughout Mastercard's systems.

  • Utilizing our Crowd SAML and Crowd Connector apps for Crowd, Jenkins, Nexus, and Sonarqube instances made everything work seamlessly.
  • Users could securely log in using their Mastercard credentials thanks to SAML 2.0, which made accessing the Identity Provider (IDP) a breeze.
  • Setting up new user accounts was easy with Just-In-Time (JIT) Provisioning, as users were automatically added from IDP to Crowd saving a truck-load of manual work.
  • Furthermore, the integration of Crowd Connector applications was instrumental in establishing connections between Identity Providers and non-Atlassian applications through Crowd. This facilitated Single Sign-On capabilities and streamlined the provisioning of users via the Identity Provider through Crowd to the relevant non-Atlassian applications (Jenkins, Sonaqube, etc).
  • Our Dev Team worked closely with the Mastercard team to tailor the SSO solution to fit their unique setup, ensuring everything worked seamlessly with their existing systems.
  • Rigorous testing and fine-tuning were performed to ensure that the solution provided a smooth experience for users across all their systems, whether Atlassian or not.

Outcome:

The implementation of SSO empowered Mastercard employees with streamlined access to Atlassian and non-Atlassian platforms, enhancing productivity and collaboration. Centralized user permissions and group management via Crowd simplified administration, reducing overhead and ensuring consistent access controls. miniOrange's tailored solution enabled Mastercard to achieve seamless SSO integration with their IDP, enhancing security and user experience.

We remain steadfast in our commitment to innovating solutions that precisely cater to our clients' unique demands and take immense pride in our role in propelling Mastercard towards achieving their SSO objectives.
