You can specify how administrators and users authenticate with the
BlackBerry UEM
consoles and the login notices that appear after users and administrators log in.
You can allow administrators and users to log in using the following authentication methods:
Authentication option
Description
Single sign-on
If you connect
BlackBerry UEM
to
Microsoft Active Directory
in an on-premises environment, you can configure single sign-on authentication to permit administrators or users to bypass the login webpage and access the management console or
BlackBerry UEM Self-Service
directly.
If single sign-on is enabled,
BlackBerry UEM
does not request a password or certificate to log in.
This feature is not supported by
BlackBerry UEM Cloud
.
Directory-based authentication
If you connect
BlackBerry UEM
to your company directory, administrators and users can log in using their directory credentials. For more information, see the on-premises configuration content or the Cloud configuration content
Local password-based authentication
Local administrators and users can authenticate with a username and password.
Certificate-based authentication
You can set up certificate-based authentication so that administrators and users can log in using an authentication certificate.
This feature is not supported by

BlackBerry 2FA
authentication
You can set up
BlackBerry 2FA
authentication so that administrators and users can log in using two-factor authentication. For more information, visit support.blackberry.com/community to read article 73371.
