×miniOrange provides secure access to Magento for enterprises and full control over access of applications, Single Sign On (SSO) into Magento with one set of login credentials.
miniOrange SAML Single Sign on (SSO) plugin acts as a SAML Service Provider which can be configured to establish the trust between the plugin and a SAML capable Identity Providers to securely authenticate the user to the Magento site.
If you want Magento to acts as a SAML Identity Provider and single sign on into various SAML supported Service Providers to securely authenticate the user using the Magento site then you need to use Magento as IDP plugin.
Magento is mostly used as a Service Provider (SP), but we can also use Magento as Identity Source. It is a Learning Management System, so it has all the user credentials, who have registered with the Magento. People (Admin / Site administrator) now want to let these users log into another website/application using the Magento credentials. In simple words, Magento users should be able to Single Sign-On into another application using Magento credentials.
1. User wants to access a service provided by some other application other than Magento.
2. The Application which is configured knows where to authenticate users. It sends the authentication request to miniOrange.
3. miniOrange checks the Magento database for the user credentials, whether the user is valid or not.
4. User credentials are fetched from the database.
5. Depending on the fetched result, miniOrange authenticates the user or denies the request.
6. User gets access to respective Service/Application.
Magento is a Learning Management System. So, users usually login to the Magento site and do their work. But in some cases, they want to SSO into the Magento site.
To perform Single Sign On (SSO), the Service Provider and the Identity Provider has to adhere to some kind of protocols like SAML, OAuth etc. In case of SAML, Service Provider is the site which user wants to access. Identity Provider is the site (kind of) where user's credentials are present. Here, the site which has user credentials is Identity Provider and the site where they want to login to is Service provider.
In this case, we will configure our Magento site as Service Provider (SP) using miniOrange Plugin. We will use SAML protocol. Here, miniOrange will be the Identity Provider (IdP).
1. User wants to access a Magento Site.
2. Magento Site sends the authentication request to miniOrange. miniOrange checks the user credentials, whether the user is valid or not.
3. miniOrange Authenticates the user.
4. User gets access to the Magento Site.
