Pass-through authentication and single sign-on

[#1]

User access to the IdentityIQ application is controlled through an authentication process in which the user's sign-on credentials are validated against an authentication source. The IdentityIQ web application can be configured by the system administrator to perform this authentication in one of three ways:

               1.  Internal IdentityIQ authentication (default)

               2.  Pass-Through Authentication (PTA) Configuration

               3.  Single Sign-On (SSO) Configuration

By default, IdentityIQ authenticates users against its internal user Identity records. However, pass-through authentication and single sign-on can be enabled and configured through the IdentityIQ user interface. In fact, IdentityIQ is not limited to using just one authentication mechanism at a time; multiple authentication methods can be used together.
