These services enable you to access resources over the Internet by using a single set of user credentials. The user provides a set of credentials to log on to different Web sites that belong to different organizations. These services enable you to integrate multiple heterogeneous applications and systems in the enterprise environment.

These applications and systems might not use common authentication. Each application has its own user directory store. Within the enterprise, middleware applications integrate the front-end and back-end applications. Enterprise Single Sign-On enables users in the enterprise to connect to both the front end and back end while using only one set of credentials. It enables both Windows Initiated Single Sign-On in which the initial request is made from the Windows domain environment and Host Initiated Single Sign-On in which the initial request is made from a non-Windows domain environment to access a resource in the Windows domain.

In addition, Password Synchronization simplifies administration of the SSO database, and keeps passwords in sync across user directories. You can do this by using password synchronization adapters, which you can configure and manage using the Password Synchronization tools. Enterprise Single Sign-On provides services to store and transmit encrypted user credentials across local and network boundaries, including domain boundaries.

SSO stores the credentials in the Credential database. Because SSO provides a generic single sign-on solution, middleware applications and custom adapters can take advantage of SSO to securely store and transmit user credentials across the environment.

End users do not have to remember different credentials for different applications. Hi Julio, Yes! Hi Peter, what if you already have a 3rd party authenticator app in place?

Is there a way to bypass the Microsoft Authenticator App or is there a way to integrate it with a 3rd party app? Kind regards Julio. Hi Julio, At this moment the functionality is part of the Microsoft Authenticator app.

It does work well in Safari, little too well. Also, when you log out en choose to log in with another account, a new tab automatically takes over that particular first session. Which to me, is a little worrying. One of the great things in Safari is that every in-private browser session is actually sandboxed from other sessions other browsers could learn from that. Hi Marco, I can reproduce the behavior of the in-private browser sessions. Just not the new tab behavior. Hi Peter and thanks for your article!

Hi Emil, Eventually both configure nearly the same settings. As mentioned in my post, the only difference is in the added URLs. The Microsoft Azure AD type does the basic standard configuration and the Redirect type allows custom configuration. Okay so what you mean is that both are using the same technology redirect in the backend and the redirect option just enables you to add some more config and custom parameters to it?

I have the SSO Kerberos Extension configured which authenticates to Azure AD and works well with share drives however for some reason the MS Office apps still prompt our users to sign in even though they are authenticated with Azure. Ideally the new users deployment process should go, 1, user logs into device for the first time 2, the user signs into an SSO extension 3, the user is not prompted to sign in again until their ticket expires.

However our users are logging into the SSO extension then being prompted to login again when they open Outlook or Teams for the first time. Each affiliate application has multiple user mappings; for example, it has the mappings between the credentials for a user in Active Directory and their corresponding RACF credentials. The SSO database is the SQL Server database that stores the information about the affiliate applications, as well as all of the encrypted user credentials to all the affiliate applications.

The master secret server is the Enterprise Single Sign-On server that stores the master secret. All other Single Sign-On servers in the system get the master secret from the master secret server. These servers do the mapping between the Microsoft Windows and back-end credentials, and look up the credentials in the SSO database. Administrators use them to maintain the SSO system.
