SCIM for SaaS


"SCIM for SaaS" User Provisioning

"SCIM for SaaS" is an AWARD-WINNING solution from SSO Easy! It simplifies Software as a Service (SaaS) identity management by offering a standardized approach for user provisioning, attribute synchronization, and resource discovery across different systems. It promotes interoperability and reduces the complexity associated with managing identities in a heterogeneous IT environment. 

 

SCIM for SaaS User Provisioning can:

  • Act as a central hub for user provisioning. It allows clients such as Microsoft Azure and Okta to create, update, and delete user accounts, along with managing associated attributes like usernames, email addresses, phone numbers, and more. 
  • Facilitate attribute mapping and synchronization between different systems. For example, when a user's attributes are updated in one system, EasyConnect Provisioning for System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) can propagate those changes to other connected systems to ensure consistency. 
  • Provide capabilities for searching and filtering user identities based on specific criteria, allowing clients to retrieve a subset of users that meet certain conditions. This is useful for applications like user directories or address books.

 

SSO Easy's "SCIM for SaaS User Provisioning" implementations are:

  • Robust and scalable
  • Quick
  • Easy
  • Cost-effective

About SCIM

What is SCIM Provisioning?

SCIM is an open standard that simplifies cloud identity management and allows user provisioning to be automated across multiple domains.

SCIM provisioning allows companies to manage user identities in the cloud efficiently and easily add or remove users within their enterprise -- benefiting budgets, reducing risk, and streamlining workflows.

Without SCIM, IT administrators would have to manually add identifying information needed by the application about users who are allowed to use the application. This manual process takes longer and has a higher margin for error. Using SCIM as a standard protocol for cloud-based applications and services solves this problem and streamlines the management of users, groups, and devices.

 

How SCIM Works

SCIM is a REST and JSON-based protocol that defines a client and server role. A client is usually an identity provider (IDP), like Active Directory, or AD, that contains a robust directory of user identities. A service provider (SP) is usually a SaaS app, like Box or Slack, that needs a subset of information from those identities. When changes to identities are made in the IdP, including create, update, and delete, they are automatically synced to the SP according to the SCIM protocol. The IdP can also read identities from the SP to add to its directory and to detect incorrect values in the SP that could create security vulnerabilities. For end users, this means that they have seamless access to applications for which they’re assigned, with up-to-date profiles and permissions.

 

SCIM Benefits

There are various benefits of SCIM provisioning, including:

  • Improve quality of service to SaaS clients
  • Increase SaaS client satisfaction and client retention
  • Improve data security
  • Improve management of authorized SaaS users
  • Increase productivity
  • Reduce liability for SaaS companies
  • Centralize identity management
  • Reduce manual processing
  • Eliminate manual errors
  • Reduce operational costs

 

With SCIM, admins no longer need to manually create and delete user accounts in web apps -- which saves them valuable time and reduces the chance for errors in the authorization levels granted to users.
