We are in Apps10 UPD6. We want to activate SSO with Active Directory for EE and Aurena.

We have seen two possibilities: either activate Azure AD or activate ADFS. Is there another one ?

We don't want to depend of internet for authentication with the middleware on premise. So we exclude Azure AD.

Do you know if ADFS 3.0 still exist in future version ?

We saw that Windows Integrated AUthentification has disappeared between App9 and Apps10.

Thanks !!

hi @arnaudguedon ,

When using ADFS for Windows 2016 or Azure Active Directory as the Open Identity Providers it is possible to achieve Single Sign On behaviour for Aurena Default Client, Aurena B2B Client and IFS Enterprise Explorer. 

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/040_administration/210_security/015_authentication/060_SSO_behaviour/default.htm

In IFS support platforms, it does not specify ADFS version. But I have noticed that customer do use more updated versions like ADFS 4 as well. Most important point worth noting is that ADFS and Azure AD are products offered by Microsoft Corporation. The configuration steps shown here related to ADFS and Azure AD are valid at the time of writing and can be referred to as a guideline. These configuration steps on ADFS and Azure AD can change over time. So you will have to refer to the latest documentation provided by the vendor when configuring.

Verify that your AD FS server runs Windows Server 2016 or later. While you can also configure single sign-on by using previous versions of Windows Server and AD FS, the After AD FS has authenticated a user, it issues a SAML assertion.
