Description

About the Indeed AM ESSO Agent

The Indeed Enterprise Single Sign-On implements the Single Sign On uniform login technology in the organization IT systems. It stores user application passwords centrally and automatically fills in those passwords in hidden form to log in to the required applications or to perform other actions that require authentication. The Indeed AM ESSO Agent facilitates the authentication procedure by eliminating the need to enter the password manually or to change the password on a regular basis.

Supported applications

The Indeed Enterprise Single Sign-On technology is used with Windows and Web applications. It is configured without interfering with either server or client part of the target application. Support for a new application requires creating a special template in .xml format. The template defines the application forms that are to be managed by the Agent. Access management stipulates for repeat of authentication request, filling in the certain fields with account data (username and password), activating of required control elements (clicking the “Login” button), recording of the event to log file etc.

Supported authentication technologies

Indeed Enterprise SSO supports alternative authentication technologies, besides the standard one, implemented in the most of the Single Sign-On products - universal master password. These alternative technologies are: two-factor authentication, biometric authentication, certificates, proximity cards, one-time passwords, sms technologies etc. Each category of Indeed-Id Enterprise SSO users can be configured to use the preset authentication technology only. The following technology combinations are also supported:

  • authentication technology, adapted for remote use
  • multi-factor authentication.
