- Authentication Using a SAML Identity Provider
The Alpha Anywhere web security system supports login using a SAML identity provider (IdP) such as Active Directory, Okta, or Ping Identity. Authentication Using a SAML identity provider allows an application to use an organization's existing security infrastructure, allowing users to log in once and be authenticated with all apps used by the organization (single sign-on).
- Cordova Federated Authentication
The Alpha Anywhere web security system supports login using federated authentication in Cordova applications. Because Cordova applications run inside a mobile web view with limited access, additional configuration is required to support federated authentication workflows. Alpha Anywhere provides extensions that enable these workflows by using a system browser for authentication and securely returning control to the Cordova application after login. This allows organizations to leverage their existing security infrastructure and provide a single sign-on experience in mobile applications.
