SecSign ID Plugin: Typo3

Prerequisites

1. A working Typo3 8.x, 9.x or 10.x Installation
2. Curl has to be activated (Open the Install-Tool and check the Parameter [SYS][curlUse] under the
   section “All Configuration”)
3. The extension file secsign.zip

Installation

1. Log into the Typo3 backend and click on “Admin Tools > Extension Manager” in the main menu.
2. If you have the installation file, click on the “Upload Extension” button, select the downloaded zip archive in the opening form and hit “Upload!”.
3. If you do not have the installation file, click “Get Extension”, update the extension list, search for “secsign” and click on the cloud logo to install the extension.

The configuration panel lets you manage the extension behavior for the Frontend and Backend login process.

1. Log into the Typo3 backend and click on “Admin Tools > Extension Manager” in the main menu
2. Search for the SecSign ID Extension and click on the “Configure” icon in the “Actions” column
3. You are going to find the following options:

General:

• Service name: The service name will be shown in the SecSign App.
• Frontend Activated: If this option is deactivated, only login with username and password is required for frontend. 2FA is deactivated, independent of any other settings.
• Backend Activated:If this option is deactivated, only login with username and password is required for backend. 2FA is deactivated, independent of any other settings.
• Automatic creation of SecSign IDs: You can choose how SecSign IDs should be created if a user not yet created one. (e.g. username as SecSign ID)
• Pattern for new SecSign IDs (only for ‘Use Pattern’ as Automatic process): If you choose pattern for automatic SecSign IDs, you can define the pattern here.
• Behaviour for already existing ID: If an automatic SecSign ID for a user already exists, what should be the solution for the user? (e.g. add an index)
• Use Creation-Process with E-Mail confirmation code: By activating this option the creation process will contain a confirmation code that is sent to the mail address of the user. This increases the security, as the user also needs access to the mail address to create the SecSign ID and enter the system. If no mail address is saved, the ID is created without mail confirmation.

Layout:

• FE-Login Logo: You can show a custom logo above the Login heading on the frontend login.
• Login Heading Text: You can change the heading of the login.
• Heading color: You can change the color of the login heading.
• Label color: You can change the color of the labels for username and password.
• Button color: You can change the color of the buttons on the login.
• Button text color: You can change the color of the text on the buttons.

Server: (nur für on-premise-Setups)

• Server URL: You can enter the url of your SecSign-ID server here.
• PinAccount User: You need a PIN-Account to identify the plugin to the server. You can enter the username for that user here.
• PinAccount Password:You can enter the PIN-Account Password here.

Support:

• DEBUG logging: If you activate this option, the add-on loggs into the typo3 log.
