Checks whether the single sign-on (SSO) feature is enabled for each RAM user. If so, the evaluation result is Compliant.

Scenarios

User-based SSO applies to the following scenarios:

  • You want to initiate logon from Alibaba Cloud, not from your IdP.
  • Some of your Alibaba Cloud services cannot be accessed by roles (that is, through STS). For more information, see Services that work with STS.
  • Your IdP does not support complex configuration of attributes.
  • You want to simplify IdP configuration.

Risk level

Default risk level: medium.

When you configure this rule, you can change the risk level based on your business requirements.

Compliance evaluation logic

  • If the SSO feature is enabled for each RAM user, the evaluation result is Compliant.
  • If the SSO feature is disabled for a RAM user, the evaluation result is Incompliant. For more information about how to remediate an incompliant configuration, see Incompliance remediation.
