Integrate with Bitdefender

Use JumpCloud SAML Single Sign On (SSO) to give your users convenient but secure access to all their web applications with a single set of credentials.

Read this article to learn how to configure the Bitdefender SSO connector. 

Prerequisites

• A JumpCloud administrator account
• JumpCloud SSO Package or higher or SSO à la carte option
• A GravityZone Cloud administrator account
• An online resource, like AWS S3 bucket with public web access, traditional web hosting, etc., to self host the JumpCloud metadata XML file

Important Considerations

• GravityZone users must have accounts in JumpCloud with the same email addresses
• GravityZone supports only Service Provider (SP) initiated single sign-on

To change the authentication method for Bitdefender users

3. Under Settings and Privileges, go to Authentication method and select Login using your Identity Provider.

To authorize user access from the Application Configuration panel

1. Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
2. Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO Applications, then select the application to which you want to authorize user access.
3. Select the User Groups tab. If you need to create a new group of users, see Get Started: User Groups.
4. Select the check box next to the group of users you want to give access.
5. Click save.
