UI navigation - SSO Management

Ubisecure SSO Management is a web application where a System Administrator manages Ubisecure specific entities and parameters and delegates administration tasks. The entities and parameters that can be managed include users, groups, applications, authorization policies and authentication methods. The administrator can also manage information such as Access Control Policy and Security Roles.

The main functionalities of Ubisecure SSO Management are:

  • Manage Ubisecure Directory data (create, edit, remove)
  • Search Ubisecure Directory objects (users, groups, applications, sites, etc)
  • View Ubisecure SSO log
