Welcome to our Enhanced Authentication Options guide. We’re excited to introduce you to our enhanced authentication methods that provide unmatched flexibility and security for logging into your account. This comprehensive guide will walk you through LDAP Integration, ADFS Integration, and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to ensure your account is safeguarded while offering a seamless login experience.
💡Note: These enhanced authentication features are meticulously designed to cater to your distinct needs. We want to emphasize that they are entirely optional and can be activated according to your preferences and organizational requirements.
Before configuring authentication settings, ensure that you are logged in as an admin user with privileges to manage (read/write permissions) the user federation module.
Upgrade your login experience today with our new LDAP, ADFS, and Multi-Factor Authentication options. Your security is our priority, and these features provide you with the tools to better safeguard your account. Embrace the power of Enhanced Authentication Options and take control of your account security like never before.
For integrating LDAP with vuSmartMaps, the admin can navigate to Platform Settings > User Federation, click + New Provider, and select LDAP. Fill in the connection details, bind domain name, and password. Test the connection and authentication to ensure proper setup.
On the User Federation page, use the sync options to “Sync changed users,” “Sync all users,” or “Remove imported users” to keep user data updated.
ADFS integration provides single sign-on (SSO) capabilities, allowing users to log in with their existing organizational credentials, enhancing security, and simplifying the login process by reducing the need for multiple passwords.
To log in with ADFS, once ADFS is set up, you will see a button for your identity provider on the vuSmartMaps login page. Click this button and follow the authentication process using your organizational credentials.
Yes, you can enable or disable the LDAP provider using the radio button on the User Federation page.
Yes, vuSmartMaps supports multi-factor authentication (MFA), offering an extra layer of security beyond passwords. MFA can be enabled upon request for enhanced protection. Please reach out to the VuNet Customer Success Manager to request this feature.
If you suspect your account has been compromised, immediately change your password and report the incident to your system administrator or vuSmartMaps support team for further investigation and assistance.
Use role-based access control (RBAC) to define permissions for different user roles. By setting up roles with specific access levels, you can ensure that only authorized users can access sensitive data streams.
