  • Acunetix 360 single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.

Note

This integration is also available to use from Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud environment. You can find this application in the Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud Application Gallery and configure it in the same way as you do from public cloud.

Scenario description

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

  • Acunetix 360 supports SP and IDP initiated SSO.
  • Acunetix 360 supports Just In Time user provisioning.
  • Acunetix 360 supports Automated user provisioning.

Note

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

To configure the integration of Acunetix 360 into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add Acunetix 360 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.

Alternatively, you can also use the Enterprise App Configuration Wizard. In this wizard, you can add an application to your tenant, add users/groups to the app, assign roles, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for Acunetix 360

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Acunetix 360 using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between a Microsoft Entra user and the related user in Acunetix 360.

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Acunetix 360, perform the following steps:

  1. Configure Microsoft Entra SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
    1. Create a Microsoft Entra test user - to test Microsoft Entra single sign-on with B.Simon.
    2. Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable B.Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
  2. Configure Acunetix 360 SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create Acunetix 360 test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Acunetix 360 that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Configure Microsoft Entra SSO

Follow these steps to enable Microsoft Entra SSO.

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.

  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > Acunetix 360 > Single sign-on.

  5. On the Basic SAML Configuration section, if you wish to configure the application in IDP initiated mode, perform the following steps:

    In the Reply URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern: https://online.acunetix360.com/account/assertionconsumerservice/?spId=<SPID>

  6. Click Set additional URLs and perform the following step if you wish to configure the application in SP initiated mode:

    In the Sign-on URL text box, type the URL: https://online.acunetix360.com/account/ssosignin

    Note

    The values is not real. Update the Reply URL value with the actual Reply URL. Contact Acunetix 360 Client support team to get the value. You can also refer to the patterns shown in the Basic SAML Configuration section.

  7. Your Acunetix 360 application expects the SAML assertions in a specific format, which requires you to add custom attribute mappings to your SAML token attributes configuration. The following screenshot shows an example for this. The default value of Unique User Identifier is user.userprincipalname but Acunetix 360 expects this to be mapped with the user's email address. For that you can use user.mail attribute from the list or use the appropriate attribute value based on your organization configuration.

Configure Acunetix 360 SSO

Create Acunetix 360 test user

In this section, a user called Britta Simon is created in Acunetix 360. Acunetix 360 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 Acunetix 360, 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 Acunetix 360 Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Acunetix 360 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 Acunetix 360 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 Acunetix 360 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 Acunetix 360 for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.
