PingOne Authentication

Ivanti Neurons currently offer the option of selecting PingOne as the external authentication provider for your tenant. This is a good choice if you want to centralize the end user log on experience, reduce the occurrence of password related calls to the help desk, and have granular controls over policies and audit trails.

Configure & Enable External Authentication

Configure Auto Provisioning

Enabling auto provisioning will automatically grant access to Ivanti Neurons for all members within the PingOne Application without having to go through the manual invite process. When a new member logs in for the first time, a new Ivanti Neurons Platform account will be provisioned in Ivanti Neurons > Members. All new auto provisioned members will be granted the access control roles defined in the set up.

Once enabled, the options: Edit the default access control roles, and Disable auto provisioning, become available. Any roles edits, or disabling, of auto provisioning will not affect any existing auto provisioned members, it will only apply to those who are provisioned after the changes have been made.

Important: Once auto-provisioning has been enabled, everyone who has access to the PingOne Application will have access to Ivanti Neurons. You can restrict access to certain users or groups from within the PingOne Application. Refer to the PingOne documentation for further details.
