SAML Single Sign-On

SAML (Security Assertion Mark-Up Language) is an XML based open standard for authorization and authentication between an Identity Provider and a Service Provider. During authentication, a SAML assertion is transferred from Identity Providers to Service Providers. Assertions contain XML statements that Service Providers use to make access-control decisions.

The settings on the SAML Single Sign-On tab allow you to configure

as a Service Provider to authenticate Web Users using an Identity Provider, such as ADFS, OpenAM, Shibboleth, Salesforce.com, SimpleSAMLphp, and more.

Managed File Transfer

supports SAML v2.0 Web Browser SSO Profile, with HTTP POST and HTTP Redirect bindings. A Web User account must exist within

Managed File Transfer

before it can be authenticated using SAML. If

cannot process the SAML assertion, the Web User will be directed to the File Transfer Portal Login page.

Web Users authenticated using SSO will not have access to SMB Network Share resources that are configured with the Use Logged in User Credentials option. SAML does not pass the user's password to
