Published on September 27, 2023Modified on November 29, 2023

Description

Enabling Microsoft SSO on Firefox allows users to log in without having to enter their Microsoft credentials each time they first connect to Olfeo SaaS.

Context

Integrating Microsoft SSO with a SaaS proxy improves application access security and usability. This procedure is intended for system administrators or IT managers responsible for configuring Microsoft SSO for Firefox.

Prerequisites

  • User browser access (manually or via GPO)

Note

The procedure below only applies to Windows workstations where users are logged in with their corporate Azure AD account.

Procedure

  1. On the end-user's computer, open Firefox.
  2. In the address bar, type "about:config" and press Enter.
  3. Accept the safety guarantee disclaimer.
  4. In the search box, type "network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris".
  5. Double-click on this entry to modify its value.
  6. Enter the URL of your SaaS proxy: "https://saas.trustlane.io", as the value and click "OK".
  7. Restart your Firefox browser for the changes to take effect.

As a result, when users access your SaaS proxy, they will be automatically authenticated via their Microsoft account without having to enter their credentials.

Be sure to follow security best practices when configuring Microsoft SSO, and keep your SaaS proxy information up to date to ensure a seamless and secure user experience.
