PROFILE
John Franklin
John Franklin modernized authentication for the GSA/digital-gov-drupal repository by migrating from SAML to an OpenID Connect-based solution with PKCE, integrating with both GSA and Okta. He reengineered the login flow to enforce admin-only account creation, disabled password resets, and removed username and password fields to promote exclusive SSO usage. Using PHP and YAML, John configured external authentication flows and streamlined provisioning through the Okta plugin, aligning with GSA IT ICAM requirements. His work included security hardening and improved logout behavior to prevent unintended GSA Auth sign-outs, demonstrating depth in backend development, authentication, and configuration management within Drupal.
