IBM Security Verify SSO

Before you begin

You will need your socure_public_account_id, available in the RiskOS™ Dashboard on the Developer Workbench > API Keys page under the Customer ID section.

2. Send the SAML metadata to Socure

After setting up the SAML App integration, download the SAML metadata file and securely share it with Socure. Do not copy and paste just the X.509 certificate. Socure requires the full SAML metadata file (XML format) that includes your entity ID, endpoints, and certificates.

Important: Customers must provide two separate metadata files to Socure:

3. Test the integration

To test the SAML integration, go to the IdP Admin Console, create a user, assign Socure's RiskOS™ app, and role(s) via the custom RoleName SAML attribute. When the user launches the RiskOS™ app from the IdP dashboard:

4. Assign users to RiskOS™

If managing role assignment to users with the custom SAML attribute for RoleName, assign role(s) to the user when assigning the application. If a role is not assigned, the system defaults to assigning Analyst role.

Note: RiskOS™ can have only 1 user assigned as Account Owner. A role assigned to a user applies in both Sandbox and Production. Users must re-authenticate every 12 hours by default; specify a shorter duration using the maxAuthenticationAge parameter for further security hardening.
