Single Sign-On With OneCheck Logon
OneCheck OneCheck settings define how users authenticate to Endpoint Security client computers. Logon is a Single Sign-On solution that let users log at one time to authenticate to all these :
When OneCheck Logon is enabled, a different logon window opens that looks almost the same as the regular Windows authentication window. The logon credentials are securely stored internally.
These actions define if you enable OneCheck Logon:
Action |
Description |
---|---|
Enable lock screen authentication (OneCheck) Enable OneCheck Identity Single Sign On for OS |
Users log on one time to authenticate to the operating system, Full Disk Encryption, and other Endpoint Security components. |
Use native sign on for OS |
Use the native OS logon mechanism. You can enable Single-Sign On (not OneCheck) in OneCheck User Settings to have one log on that applies to the OS and Full Disk Encryption. |
Double-click an action to edit the Properties.
To configure OneCheck Logon properties:
-
Select Enable lock screen authentication (OneCheck).
-
Optional: Configure the Check Point Endpoint Security screensaver.
-
The screensaver is active only after a Full Disk Encryption policy has been installed on the client.
-
After selecting the Check Point Endpoint Security screensaver option, enter the:
-
Text that shows when the screensaver is active.
-
Number of minutes the client remains idle before the screensaver activates.
-
-
-
Optional: Select Require that only an authorized Pre-boot user is allowed to log into Windows. If selected, only users that have permission to authenticate to the Pre-boot
Authentication before the Operating System loads. on that computer can log on to the operating system.
-
Optional: Select Use Pre-boot account credentials in OS lock screen. If selected, users authenticate in the regular Operating System login screen but with the credentials configured for Pre-boot.
Best practice is to only use this feature when there is no Active Directory available. For customers that use Active Directory, we recommend a combination of User Acquisition, OneCheck Logon, and Password Synchronization that will let users use the same credentials for Pre-boot and Windows login.
