  • Artikkeli

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate S4 - Digitsec with Microsoft Entra ID. When you integrate S4 - Digitsec with Microsoft Entra ID, you can:

  • Control in Microsoft Entra ID who has access to S4 - Digitsec.
  • Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to S4 - Digitsec with their Microsoft Entra accounts.

Prerequisites

To get started, you need the following items:

  • A Microsoft Entra subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
  • S4 - Digitsec single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
  • Along with Cloud Application Administrator, Application Administrator can also add or manage applications in Microsoft Entra ID. For more information, see Azure built-in roles.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO in a test environment.

  • S4 - Digitsec supports SP and IDP initiated SSO.
  • S4 - Digitsec supports Just In Time user provisioning.

Note

Identifier of this application is a fixed string value so only one instance can be configured in one tenant.

Add S4 - Digitsec from the gallery

To configure the integration of S4 - Digitsec into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add S4 - Digitsec from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > New application.
  3. In the Add from the gallery section, type S4 - Digitsec in the search box.

Configure S4 - Digitsec SSO

To configure single sign-on on S4 - Digitsec side, you need to send the downloaded Certificate (Base64) and appropriate copied URLs from the application configuration to S4 - Digitsec support team. They set this setting to have the SAML SSO connection set properly on both sides.

Create S4 - Digitsec test user

In this section, a user called B.Simon is created in S4 - Digitsec. S4 - Digitsec supports just-in-time user provisioning, which is enabled by default. There is no action item for you in this section. If a user doesn't already exist in S4 - Digitsec, a new one is created after authentication.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

SP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application, this will redirect to S4 - Digitsec Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to S4 - Digitsec Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

IDP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application, and you should be automatically signed in to the S4 - Digitsec for which you set up the SSO.

You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the S4 - Digitsec tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign-on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the S4 - Digitsec for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.

Next steps

Once you configure S4 - Digitsec you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
