Ensure hassle-free and secured login to your Joomla site with miniOrange’s SAML SP SSO Extension.
Application of SAML SSO includes secured access to Joomla sites using IdP credentials such as Azure AD, Salesforce, or Google Workspace.
Let’s take a look at some key features now.
Key Features of Joomla SAML SSO Include
1. Multiple Certificate Support
2. Auto Sync Metadata
Ensure a seamless SSO process by automatically synching and updating IdP configuration within the plugin periodically (hours, days, weeks).
3. Auto Redirect to IdP
When users try to access your protected Joomla site, and they are not yet authenticated, this feature automatically redirects their browser to the IdP login page.
4. Enable SSO for '/administrator ' URL
Enhance the security of your site by enabling SSO for the Joomla site’s admins. This feature extends the SAML SSO protection, requiring admins to authenticate through the configured IdP.
5. Domain Mapping/Domain Based Restriction
This feature enables you to control which users from specific domains (email IDs) are allowed to access your application via Joomla SAML SSO plugin.
6. Attribute and Group/Role Mapping
Allows you to map attributes from Azure AD to your Joomla SP site. You can also assign roles/groups to the users and map them on your Joomla site.
7. Supports 5 Authentication Context Class Ref.
The SAML Single Sign-On plugin for Joomla supports 5 Authentication Context class Ref. The AuthnContext and AuthnContextClassRef provides a way for SPs to specify the desired authentication methods in their authentication requests, allowing for more controlled and secure access.
8. Support for Signature Algorithm
This feature allows you to support different signature algorithms used by the IdP. This ensures compatibility with the security policies and configurations of Azure AD as IdP.
9. Add Custom Certificate
Manually upload a custom certificate to the SAML SSO plugin. This is necessary in specific scenarios, such as when the IdP's certificate is not available via a metadata URL or for specific testing or security requirements.
