Manage User Authentication Profiles
Cisco Secure Access supports the use of Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) or OpenID Connect (OIDC) to authenticate users. Secure Access requires that users are authenticated before they can connect to internet-bound destinations through the Secure Access Secure Web Gateway (SWG) or connect with Secure Access Zero Trust Access (ZTA) to private destinations.
To get started, add a single sign-on (SSO) authentication profile in Secure Access for each user authentication IdP integration. You must associate one of the organization's configured provisioning profiles (user directory) with the SSO authentication profile.
