CENTRIFY FOR OFFICE 365 Enhance the security, deployability & SSO experience of Office 365 Centrify for Office 365 is an easy-to-deploy, Azure-based service that offers the industry’s most comprehensive solution for Active Directory-based single sign-on, user provisioning and mobile management - without the cost and complexity of deploying ADFS. And Centrify also supports hundreds of other SaaS apps so your users can get single sign-on to all your cloud-based applications. Centrify for SaaS decreases the cost of rolling out and managing Office 365 and other cloud applications while at the same time improving user adoption, satisfaction and productivity.

Painless Active Directory Integration for Office 365 Drop-in alternative to ADFS and DirSync Centrify for Office 365 provides a drop-in alternative to ADFS and DirSync for Office 365. ADFS and DirSync require specialized knowledge and significant investments in high-availability clustered servers, both inside the firewall and in the DMZ, which can take days to weeks to set up. Centrify for Office 365 delivers seamless integration with Active Directory in minutes without managing server clusters, deploying in the DMZ, poking more holes in the firewall or acquiring and maintaining public certificates. Centrify for Office 365 requires no specialized knowledge or dedicated infrastructure in order to deliver secure single sign-on and user provisioning.

Secure access to Office 365 across all users’ devices Users can seamlessly access Office 365 apps, including Exchange, SharePoint and Lync, from a web browser, a rich client such as Outlook or other Microsoft Office apps from either a PC or a Mac or from mobile devices using Exchange Active Sync — all while using their existing Active Directory credentials.

Single sign-on to the rest of your SaaS applications In addition to Office 365, Centrify has a catalog of hundreds of pre-integrated cloud apps. Using a personalized MyCentrify portal, users can simply log in once and then point, click and launch all their SaaS applications without having to remember their username and password for each app. Users can even silently authenticate to the MyCentrify portal without having to log on if they access it from a browser on a computer in their corporate network or through a mobile device that has Centrify for Mobile installed.


CENTRIFY FOR OFFICE 365 How Centrify for Office 365 Works Centrify for SaaS Components MyCentrify portal is an Active Directory-integrated and clouddelivered user portal that delivers oneclick access to hundreds of SaaS apps (MyApps), self-service for passcode reset, device lock and remote and device location mapping (MyDevices), self-service password reset and updates of selected Active Directory user attributes (MyAccount), as well as activity events that can help users selfreport suspicious activities on their account (MyActivity).

Centrify Cloud Service is a multi-tenanted service that provides secure communication from your on-premise Active Directory to your SaaS applications accessed from the MyCentrify user portal. The cloud service facilitates secure single sign-on and controls access to your SaaS applications through a security token service, which authenticates users to the portal with Kerberos, WS*, SAML, or an Active Directory username and password. It then automates logins through a one-click interface when users select from their list of authorized SaaS applications. Centrify Cloud Proxy seamlessly leverages and extends Active Directory to your SaaS applications and mobile devices via Centrify Cloud Services. The proxy is a simple Windows service that runs behind your firewall, providing real-time authentication, policy and access to user profiles without synchronizing data to the cloud. Additional proxies can be installed for automatic load balancing and failover.

Centrify takes a unique approach to Office 365 access and single sign-on by enabling you to use Microsoft Active Directory to centrally manage policies for user access and authentication to Office 365 and other SaaS applications without replicating your Active Directory in the cloud. Easiest-to-deploy solution for federated identity from Active Directory. Five-minute install of Centrify Cloud Proxy No servers, software or appliances in the DMZ No Active Directory schema changes or software on domain controllers No new holes in your firewall No public certs to acquire or maintain No replication of Active Directory to a third-party cloud solution Support for all rich clients of Office 365 on PC, Mac and mobile devices
