ForgeRock Access Management

ForgeRock AM (PingAM) is a policy and token-issuing server for app and API access. It operates as an OAuth 2.0/OIDC provider, SAML 2.0 IdP/SP, and supports fine-grained authorization patterns such as UMA 2.0. Authentication is orchestrated with drag-and-drop authentication trees (Intelligent Access) and can include WebAuthn passkeys.

Key Capabilities

  • OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect provider: Token, authorization, discovery, dynamic client registration, and claims customization for first-party and third-party apps.

  • SAML 2.0 federation: Acts as IdP or SP for enterprise SSO (HTTP-Redirect/POST bindings; SSO/SLO flows).

  • Intelligent Access (authentication trees): Node-based journeys to build adaptive and step-up flows.

  • Passwordless / Passkeys: Built-in WebAuthn (FIDO2), including usernameless experiences (“ForgeRock Go”).

Limitations

  • Not an IGA/provisioning suite: AM handles authN/authZ and federation. Provisioning/governance are separate (ForgeRock/Ping IDM or third-party IGA).

  • Feature variance by release: Specific OIDC/SAML/UMA options and admin UI paths can differ across versions.
