Configuring Zero Sign-on

1 min

A Zero Sign-on setup requires an Access deployment with MobileIron UEM, as well as additional configurations forZero Sign-on in Access and in the MobileIron UEM. A Zero Sign-on configuration enables passwordless access to cloud resources by using the user identifying information in the Tunnel certificate for authentication.Zero Sign-on is part of a MobileIron Access deployment. Therefore, before configuring Zero Sign-on ensure that you have an Access deployment and that single sign-on is configured for cloud service providers.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have an Access deployment with MobileIron UEM. See Overview of configuration with Ivanti Neurons for MDM. OR See Overview of configuration with Ivanti EPMM A Tunnel setup is part of deploying Access with MobileIron UEM. Detailed steps and references for setting up Tunnel and required certificates for Tunnel are included in the instructions for deploying Access with MobileIron UEM.

Ensure that mobile app single sign-on (SSO) is configured for the service provider (SP). For a federated pair, see Configuring Mobile App Single Sign-on (SSO). For delegated IdP, see Configuring Ivanti Access as the delegated IdP .

MobileIron recommends, where available, that managed app configurations are deployed in MobileIron UEM for your cloud service provider apps, such as for Salesforce, Concur, Box, or Outlook. For a seamless end-user experience, deploy a managed app configuration to streamline the user and organization information input. For information about how to set up a managed app configuration, see the following:

For MobileIron Core: See "iOS managed app configuration" or "App configuration for Android enterprise apps" in the Ivanti EPMM Apps@Work Guide.

For MobileIron Cloud: See "Using iOS Managed App Configuration" or "Managed Configurations for Android" in the Ivanti Neurons for MDM Administrator Guide.
