Authentication

FlexNet Manager Suite 2023 R1 (On-Premises)

User authentication is a critical component of the security structure in your organization. Many security-conscious organizations are moving beyond traditional user name and password authentication within each tool they use, to a standard "single sign-on" approach. This chapter describes the authentication technologies and configuration requirements that can be used with FlexNet Manager Suite to integrate with a single sign-on infrastructure.

Two basic approaches to using a single sign-on for authentication and authorization are supported:

• Integration with products using the Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0 (SAML)
• Integration with the OAuth 2.0 framework provided by Google.
