Application access tree
Description
Soffid allows administrator users to create new entry points to the information systems. These entry points are the way that the users have to connect to the applications.
Entry points can be URLs or applications that can give access to information systems that have been registered in Soffid. These entry points are managed in a tree structure that allows creating new menus and new application access.
Each member of the tree can be tied to a list of users, accounts groups or roles. Also, you can choose if the application menu entry will be visible or not by not authorized users.
After logging on a managed workstation, the system will apply such restrictions and will update the Windows or Linux start menu.
Each application entry point will have different execution methods for full managed workstations, loosely managed workstations, or external devices. Each of them can be a web browser URL or a javascript piece.
Each application entry point can have a single sign on rule. Those roles are fully explained at SSO reference guide.
