Identity provider flexibility

SecureAuth integrates with a wide range of identity providers (IdPs) so you can unify access without being locked into a single vendor. This enables secure access for workforce, customers, and partners in hybrid or multi-cloud environments.

Why it matters
Organizations often operate multiple IdPs due to acquisitions, partner access, or phased migrations. Flexibility prevents disruption and lock-in.

Key capabilities​

  • Multiple IdP support – Connect SecureAuth with AD, Azure AD, Okta, or other IdPs
  • Federated access – Enable seamless access across enterprise and partner systems
  • Custom attributes – Enrich tokens and sessions with additional user data
  • Centralized governance – Apply consistent policies and logging across all IdPs

Outcomes​

Organizations that use identity provider flexibility achieve:

  • Freedom from lock-in by integrating multiple IdPs simultaneously
  • Unified policies that govern access across federated environments
  • Faster onboarding for partners, customers, and acquired organizations

Design principles​

  • Support protocol standards (SAML, OIDC, LDAP) for broad compatibility
  • Apply consistent security policies regardless of source IdP
  • Use attribute enrichment to deliver needed claims to applications
  • Ensure audit logging across all identity flows for compliance

Where to configure​

Compliance note​

Identity provider flexibility supports federation standards and compliance frameworks by ensuring traceability and consistent access controls across providers.

FAQ​

Which identity providers are supported?

SecureAuth supports Active Directory, Azure AD, Okta, and any IdP using SAML, OIDC, or LDAP.

Can policies differ by IdP?

Yes. SecureAuth lets you define policies and rules per IdP while still applying centralized governance.

How does this help in M&A scenarios?

M&A stands for mergers and acquisitions. When companies combine, each usually has its own identity provider (such as Active Directory, Okta, or Azure AD). SecureAuth allows you to integrate multiple IdPs from acquired or merged organizations without forcing an immediate migration. This reduces disruption, maintains secure access, and gives you time to plan a gradual consolidation if desired.

Is attribute mapping customizable?

Yes. You can enrich tokens and sessions with additional user attributes to meet app requirements.
