With Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) Single Sign-On (SSO), users sign in once using their primary organizational account to securely access web and SaaS applications. SSO enables users to authenticate to applications using their single organizational account.
The SSO environment protects defined resources (websites and applications) by requiring the following steps before granting access:
- Authentication: Authentication verifies the identity of a user using login credentials.
- Authorization: Authorization applies permissions to determine if this user may access the requested resource.
Adding the Email Gateway Defense app to your enterprise applications list in the Azure Portal allows end users to sign in using their Microsoft Entra ID credentials. This will also avoid consent screens appearing for users during the login process.
Once logged in, users can view their quarantine messages.
