Implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) in the Eagle Eye Cloud VMS


Single-Sign-On

Click the banner to view the full Application Note.
This Application Note is intended for Resellers of the Eagle Eye Cloud VMS whose customers wish to utilize the convenience and security offered by single sign-on, as well as those End Users wishing to set it up for themselves. Note that SSO is included with both Professional and Enterprise editions.


Eagle Eye Networks allows users to log in using single sign-on via an identity provider that  supports SAML v2.0 (Security Assertion Markup Language). This document provides the information required to set up the Identity Provider (IdP) for single sign-on (SSO) with the Eagle Eye Networks Cloud VMS. Common systems used for SSO are Microsoft Azure Active Directory, Okta, and Google Cloud Platform. Users can login with their corporate emails, which offers the following benefits: 

  1. Easier login experience for the user. 
  2. Increased security because there are fewer passwords to remember. 
  3. Higher productivity because people spend less time logging in to their system. 
  4. Easier IT administration. If an employee departs the company, access can be revoked for multiple applications at once.



In order to configure SSO, the following requirements should be met: 

You must be a Professional or Enterprise Edition user as SSO support is only available in the Professional and Enterprise Editions of the Eagle Eye Cloud VMS.
  1. You must enable Branding. To do this, log in to your Reseller account, then click your profile name and Account Settings. If Branding has already been enabled, it will be the default tab shown in Account Settings. If you do not see the Branding tab, please contact your sales engineer to have this enabled.


  1. Single sign-on options must have been enabled for you by Eagle Eye Networks. Contact your sales engineer if you need to have this enabled.
