What is the Entra Directory Service (EDS) and how does it work?
The My1Login Entra Directory Service (EDS) :
- enables a Zero-Login experience for your My1Login users so adoption is guaranteed
- provides the highest level of customer security by managing client-side encryption keys inside the secure perimeter of your enterprise network
- reduces IT administration effort by automating user account lifecycle management that is synchronised with your Entra directory.
The EDS supports bi-directional communication using Web Sockets on port 443 to the following hosts without requiring any firewall ports to be opened :
Entra Directory Object Synchronisation
Entra Directory Object Synchronisation
The EDS synchronises Entra Directory AUs, Security Groups and Users with corresponding objects in the My1Login directory.
Account Provisioning on My1Login & Just In Time Provisioning on External Apps
Entra Directory users, who are synced to My1Login, may connect to the My1Login system. User access respects the status of the corresponding Entra Directory user object and permission to access token-based sites, or specific stored identities and credentials, can be directly linked to users’ security group membership by configuring provisioning policies within My1Login. These policies can also be configured to enable Just In Time Provisioning of user accounts where supported on external web applications.
