Integrating WatchGuard AuthPoint with Secret Server
AuthPoint is WatchGuard's identity security and multi-factor authentication (MFA) service. With AuthPoint, you can require users to authenticate with the AuthPoint mobile app or a hardware token when they log into a protected resource, such as a computer, VPN, or a cloud service or application. Integration between Secret Server and WatchGuard AuthPoint allows SAML Identity Provider (IDP) authentication instead of the normal authentication process for single sign-on (SSO). To do this, the Secret Server acts as a SAML Service Provider (SP) and communicates with WatchGuard, acting as a SAML IDP. Users needing to access Secret Server will not log in through a Secret Server form but will be redirected to Watchguard, which will take care of validating the credentials and communicating the data necessary for user identification to Secret Server, which will eventually log the user in.
