New AuthPoint SAML Integration Makes Web Single Sign On (SSO) More Efficient | WatchGuard Technologies

AuthPoint has introduced a SAML integration feature allowing admins to include custom attributes in the SAML resource configuration, expanding integration capabilities beyond existing options. This flexibility enables quicker addition of protected resources for partners, customers, and prospects. Out-of-the-box attributes like email, first name, and groups can be easily incorporated. Integrations, even untested by the ecosystem team, can be swiftly deployed. Users can now select icons for generic SAML integrations, simplifying application identification and access. SAML facilitates trust between Cloud applications (e.g., Microsoft 365, Salesforce) and identity providers (like MFA solutions). AuthPoint supports over 150 integrations with third-party solutions using SAML. Custom integrations address specific needs that pre-defined integrations may not meet. Admins have the option to customize integrations without needing immediate action for configured Cloud/SAML applications, allowing for icon changes for better application identification.
