In the latest Striim 5.0 release, we are excited to introduce a highly anticipated feature: Single Sign-On (SSO) support for on-premise Striim. This new capability empowers users to access Striim seamlessly using their existing corporate credentials, streamlining the login process and enhancing security. Let’s dive into what this feature does, how to use it, and how Striim adds value to your business.
What Does SSO Support Do?
Traditionally, users needed to manage multiple sets of credentials, such as usernames and passwords, for each enterprise application, including Striim. With the introduction of SSO support, Striim now integrates with popular identity providers such as Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) and Okta, enabling customers to use a single set of login credentials across multiple enterprise systems.
SSO utilizes the SAML 2.0 protocol, allowing Striim users to log in without having to remember separate usernames and passwords for each application. By eliminating this friction, the user experience becomes more streamlined and secure.
How Do You Use It?
Striim offers two methods for setting up SSO:
- Identity Provider (IDP) Initiated Login: In this method, the user launches Striim from the Azure AD App Gallery. They are automatically federated through the Identity Provider (IDP), completing the login process.
- Service Provider (SP) Initiated Login: Here, the user starts the login process directly within Striim. Striim redirects them to Azure Entra or Okta (the IDP), where they authenticate, and then they are returned to Striim.
These two options give flexibility in how users can access Striim, ensuring that the setup aligns with your enterprise’s workflow.

How Does Striim Add Value?
The addition of SSO support provides numerous advantages for both users and businesses:
- Enhanced Security and Compliance: With SSO and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) support via Entra or Okta, Striim meets enterprise information security requirements for authentication and authorization. This helps businesses maintain compliance with security standards while reducing the risk of password-related breaches.
- Simplified User Management: Striim users can now be managed directly through their Entra or Okta dashboards, making it easier for IT teams to control access and permissions, just like they do with other enterprise software. This centralization simplifies administration and improves user access management.
