Tutorial: Microsoft Entra single sign-on (SSO) integration with CheckProof

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate CheckProof with Microsoft Entra ID. When you integrate CheckProof with Microsoft Entra ID, you can:

  • Control in Microsoft Entra ID who has access to CheckProof.
  • Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to CheckProof with their Microsoft Entra accounts.
  • Manage your accounts in one central location.

Prerequisites

To get started, you need the following items:

  • A Microsoft Entra subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
  • CheckProof single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO in a test environment.

To configure the integration of CheckProof into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add CheckProof from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > New application.
  3. In the Add from the gallery section, type CheckProof in the search box.
  4. Select CheckProof from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.

Alternatively, you can also use the Enterprise App Configuration Wizard. In this wizard, you can add an application to your tenant, add users/groups to the app, assign roles, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for CheckProof

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with CheckProof using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between a Microsoft Entra user and the related user in CheckProof.

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with CheckProof, perform the following steps:

  1. Configure Microsoft Entra SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
    1. Create a Microsoft Entra test user - to test Microsoft Entra single sign-on with B.Simon.
    2. Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable B.Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
  2. Configure CheckProof SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create CheckProof test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in CheckProof that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Configure Microsoft Entra SSO

Follow these steps to enable Microsoft Entra SSO.

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.

  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > CheckProof > Single sign-on.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

  • Click on Test this application, and you should be automatically signed in to the CheckProof for which you set up the SSO.

  • You can use Microsoft My Apps. When you click the CheckProof tile in the My Apps, you should be automatically signed in to the CheckProof for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.

Next steps

Once you configure CheckProof you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
