Recommendations

Application >> OIDC App

When OIDC app is selected, we recommend to use a strong client secret. It should be rotated regularly and not be shared. When compromised or when the stakeholders having access to this secret change, it should be rotated immediately.

Authentication flow >> Password security

Use Enhanced security and activate the Disallow the use of the 100'000 most common passwords checkbox.
