Single Sign-On Configuration Overview
Single Sign-On (SSO) is a method that enables secure access to multiple applications and websites using just one set of login details. Juniper Security Director Cloud supports portal access management using network credentials.
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is a standard that facilitates authentication and authorization between a service provider (SP) and an identity provider (IdP). This process involves the exchange of digitally signed XML documents. The service provider consents to trust the identity provider for user authentication. Subsequently, the identity provider generates an authentication assertion confirming that the user is authenticated.
SSO Configuration Benefits
SAML authentication streamlines the integration of Juniper Security Director Cloud with your corporate identity provider for SSO. Once authenticated with your identity provider, you're granted access to Juniper Security Director Cloud without needing extra passwords or credentials.
We facilitate both identity provider-initiated and service provider-initiated SSO, ensuring compatibility with SAML 2.0 Web SSO profile.
