Greater security for Microsoft 365 certificate-based authentication integration for SaaS Management

Note:This enhancement is available with SaaS Management.

Over time, Flexera One’s SaaS Management team has developed increasingly more secure integrations with Microsoft 365. Its first Microsoft 365 integration required the OAuth2 with authorize flow authentication method. Next came the Microsoft 365 Client Credentials integration requiring the OAuth2 with client credentials authentication method.

Now SaaS Management offers even greater security with the Microsoft 365 certificate-based authentication integration. This integration features Azure Active Directory (AD) certificate-based authentication to enable your organization to allow or require users to authenticate directly with X.509 certificates against your Azure AD for applications and browser sign-in. When certificate-based authentication is enabled, you can adopt a phishing resistant multifactor authentication.
