Custom authentication

Important: Custom authentication has been deprecated and will be removed in the near future. If you are using custom authentication to access Aurora Endpoint Security, you can migrate your external IDP to an authenticator and use enhanced authentication to access the Endpoint Defense console. For more information on enhanced authentication, see Configure authentication for sign-in.

Use external identity providers (IdP) to login to the management console. This requires configuring settings with your IdP to obtain an X.509 certificate and a URL for verifying your IdP login. Custom authentication works with Microsoft SAML 2.0. This feature is confirmed to work with OneLogin, Okta, Microsoft Azure, and PingOne. This feature also provides a custom setting and should work with other IdPs that useMicrosoft SAML 2.0.

Note: Custom authentication does not support Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS).
