When integrated, Microsoft SharePoint end users must authenticate with RSA SecurID Access to sign in. Microsoft SharePoint can integrate using WS-Fed SSO Agent, RSA Authentication Agent for IIS or RSA Authentication Agent for AD FS. Microsoft SharePoint does not support JIT (just in time) user provisioning.
SSO Agent integrations use SAML 2.0, HFED or WS-Fed technologies to direct users’ web browsers to RSA SecurID Access for authentication. SSO Agents also provide Single Sign-On to other applications using the RSA Application Portal.
RSA Authentication Agent for IIS can be leveraged to secure access to Microsoft SharePoint server. RSA Authentication for IIS supports integration with RSA Authentication Manager. For more information, browse to the RSA Authentication Agent for web - IIS page on RSA link.
RSA Authentication Agent for AD FS can be leveraged to secure access to Microsoft SharePoint by way of AD FS. RSA Authentication Agent for AD FS supports integration with RSA Authentication Manager and RSA Cloud Authentication Service. For more information, browse to the RSA Authentication Agent for Microsoft ADFS page on RSA link.
Note: This guide describes SharePoint integration with RSA SecurID Access using SSO Agent only. For integration using RSA Authentication Agent for IIS or ADFS, refer to corresponding authentication agent related documentation available in the above mentioned links.
This section shows all of the supported features by integration type and by RSA SecurID Access component. Use this information to determine which integration type and which RSA SecurID Access component your deployment will use. The next section in this guide contains the instruction steps for how to integrate RSA SecurID Access with Microsoft SharePoint using SSO Agent.
