Introducing Single Sign-On for the Cloudflare Dashboard

On October 10, 2018, Garrett Galow discussed the challenge of managing user access to SaaS applications as the number of services grows. He highlighted how adopting identity services allows companies to centralize employee authentication and mentioned Cloudflare Access's role in this process. The blog announces support for enterprise customers to use single sign-on (SSO) through their identity provider to access the Cloudflare dashboard, ensuring that customers can apply the same authentication policies as other critical resources. SSO is built using Cloudflare Access and Workers, with configurations managed through Access, supporting the same identity providers available in Access today, including SAML. The integration of SSO for all Cloudflare employees ensures uniform enforcement of multi-factor authentication policies for services protected by Cloudflare itself. Enterprise customers can reach out to their Customer Success Manager to learn how to start using SSO for the Cloudflare dashboard.
