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. Automatically provision, update and deprovision users and groups in Hoxhunt from JumpCloud using the Identity Management (SCIM) integration. Leverage this integration to centralize user lifecycle, user identity, and group management in JumpCloud for Hoxhunt. Save time and avoid mistakes, as well as potential security risks, related to manually creating users.
Read this article to learn how to setup the Hoxhunt integration.
