Description
Describe the feature
Allow users to connect via AWS SSO as an authentication option
Use Case
Most people use centralized authentication systems using SSO to manage users accros their environments. This would allow more flexability out of the box and intergration with current deployments
Proposed Solution
Objective:
To enhance security and streamline the user access management across multiple AWS services and applications by integrating AWS Single Sign-On (SSO) as a central authentication mechanism.
Context:
The organization utilizes various AWS services (e.g., EC2, S3, Lambda) along with several internal and third-party web applications. Currently, users manage separate credentials for different services, leading to inefficiencies and increased security risks.
Requirements:
Centralized Authentication: Implement AWS SSO to serve as the central hub for authentication across all AWS services and connected applications.
Single Sign-On Capability: Enable users to log in once and gain access to all authorized resources without the need to re-authenticate.
Easy Integration: Ensure AWS SSO can be easily integrated with existing AWS resources and third-party applications, supporting standards like SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0.
Scalable Management: Provide a scalable solution for managing user identities, access policies, and permissions across a growing number of services and applications.
Compliance and Auditing: Facilitate compliance with security policies and auditing requirements by leveraging AWS SSO’s centralized access control and logging features.
Expected Benefits:
Improved User Experience: Users benefit from simplified access to resources, leading to increased productivity.
Enhanced Security: Centralized management of identities and access policies reduces the risk of security breaches.
Operational Efficiency: Reduces the administrative burden of managing multiple sets of credentials and access permissions.
Compliance and Governance: Simplifies compliance with security policies and facilitates auditing of access controls and activities.
