Configure Quarem SSO

To configure single sign-on on Quarem side, you need to send the App Federation Metadata Url to Quarem support team. They set this setting to have the SAML SSO connection set properly on both sides.

Create Quarem test user

In this section, you create a user called B.Simon in Quarem. Work with Quarem support team to add the users in the Quarem platform. Users must be created and activated before you use single sign-on.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

SP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application in Microsoft Entra admin center. This will redirect to Quarem Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Quarem Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

IDP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application in Microsoft Entra admin center and you should be automatically signed in to the Quarem for which you set up the SSO.

You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the Quarem tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the Quarem for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.

Next steps

Once you configure Quarem you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization's sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
