Nick Couchman commented on GUACAMOLE-877:
-----------------------------------------

Sounds like a good plan.

What protocol(s) does Okta use for this?  REST API?  RADIUS?

> My company has been using Guacamole as our Remote Access solutions the past few years and it has been very reliable. We would like to strengthen our security posture by adding a second-factor authentication to our Guacamole stack. I am looking to develop and integrate Okta as another Guacamole auth extension. 
> Thinking this extension would behave very similar to the Duo auth extension. The authentication steps should follow:
> 1. User login Guacamole as usual.
> 2. Guacamole attempts to authenticate the user with the first authenticator (LDAP, MySQL or ...)
> 3. Once the first authentication attempt is succeeded, Okta auth extension rejects the authentication attempt and starts asking for the second-factor authentication.
> 4. Presents the Okta MFA flow and have them navigate through it (enrollment, activation, authentication)
> 5. Once the user has successfully satisfied the MFA challenge, Guacamole receives a signed response.
> 6. Okta auth extension validates the response. If valid, allow the user to proceed, otherwise, reject.
> I believe this extension would add more value to the product. Please let me know if I am on the right thinking track.
