Duo Single Sign-On for Businessmap

Last Updated: October 3rd, 2024

Add two-factor authentication and flexible security policies to your Businessmap logins with Duo Single-Sign On. Our cloud-hosted OpenID identity provider offers inline user enrollment, self-service device management, and support for a variety of authentication methods — such as passkeys and security keys, Duo Push, or Verified Duo Push — in the Universal Prompt.

About Duo Single Sign-On

Duo Single Sign-On is our cloud-hosted SSO product which layers Duo's strong authentication and flexible policy engine on top of Businessmap logins using the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 or OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication standards. Duo Single Sign-On acts as an OpenID provider (OP), authenticating your users using existing on-premises Active Directory (AD) or any SAML 2.0 IdP and prompting for two-factor authentication before permitting access to Businessmap.

Duo Single Sign-On is available in Duo Premier, Duo Advantage, and Duo Essentials plans, which also include the ability to define policies that enforce unique controls for each individual SSO application. For example, you can require that Salesforce users complete two-factor authentication at every login, but only once every seven days when accessing Businessmap. Duo checks the user, device, and network against an application's policy before allowing access to the application.

Configure Single Sign-On

Before configuring Businessmap with Duo SSO using OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication you'll first need to enable Duo Single Sign-On for your Duo account and configure a working authentication source.

Once you have your SSO authentication source working, continue to the next step of creating the Businessmap application in Duo.

When configuring an application to be protected with Duo Single Sign-On you'll need to send attributes from Duo Single Sign-On to the application. Active Directory will work with no additional setup, but if you used a SAML idenity provider as your authentication source please verify that you configured it to send the correct SAML attributes.

Below you can see the default bridge attributes that automatically map certain attributes from your authentication source.

Bridge Attribute Active Directory SAML IdP
<Username> sAMAccountName Username
<Email Address> mail Email
<Display Name> displayName DisplayName
<First Name> givenName FirstName
<Last Name> sn LastName

Create the Businessmap Application in Duo

  1. Log on to the Duo Admin Panel and navigate to Applications.

  2. Click Protect an Application and locate the entry for Businessmap with a protection type of "2FA with SSO hosted by Duo (Single Sign-On)" in the applications list. Click Protect to the far-right to start configuring Businessmap. See Protecting Applications for more information about protecting applications in Duo and additional application options. You'll need the information on the Businessmap page under Metadata later.

  3. The Metadata section contains OpenID provider information about Duo Single Sign-On you will provide to Businessmap at a later configuration step.

  4. Scopes are used by Businessmap during authentication to authorize access to a user's details. Each scope returns a set of user attributes (claims) that must be mapped to IdP attributes. When an application sends an OIDC request to Duo SSO, the response sends only the claims from the requested scopes.

    We've automatically enabled the following scopes and mapped the listed attributes. You can change the attribute sent from your authentication source by modifying the IdP Attribute name related to each claim:

    • Email Scope:

      IdP Attribute Claim
      <Email Address> email
    Duo Businessmap OIDC Response Section
  5. You can adjust additional settings for your new SSO application at this time — like changing the application's name from the default value, enabling self-service, or assigning a group policy.

  6. Keep the Duo Admin Panel tab open. You will come back to it later.

Duo Universal Prompt

The Duo Universal Prompt provides a simplified and accessible Duo login experience for web-based applications, offering a redesigned visual interface with security and usability enhancements.

 Duo Push in Universal Prompt  Duo Push in Traditional Prompt

The Duo Businessmap application supports the Universal Prompt by default, so there's no additional action required on your part to start using the newest authentication experience.

Activate Universal Prompt

Activation of the Universal Prompt is a per-application change. Activating it for one application does not change the login experience for your other Duo applications. Universal Prompt is already activated for new Businessmap applications at creation.

The "Universal Prompt" area of the application details page shows that this application's status is "Activation complete", with these activation control options:

  • Show traditional prompt: Your users experience Duo's traditional prompt via redirect when logging in to this application.
  • Show new Universal Prompt: (Default) Your users experience the Universal Prompt via redirect when logging in to this application.

The application's Universal Prompt status shows "Activation complete" both here and on the Universal Prompt Update Progress report.

Universal Prompt Info - Universal Prompt Activation Complete

For the time being, you may change this setting to Show traditional prompt to use the legacy experience. Keep in mind that support for the traditional Duo prompt ended for the majority of applications in March 2024. This option will be removed in the future.

Universal Update Progress

Click the See Update Progress link to view the Universal Prompt Update Progress report. This report shows the update availability and migration progress for all your Duo applications. You can also activate the new prompt experience for multiple supported applications from the report page instead of visiting the individual details pages for each application.

Configure Businessmap

  1. Log into your Businessmap account as an administrator.

  2. In the upper right corner of the page, click the gear icon and then click Applications, under "Integrations". The "Account administration" pop-up window opens.

  3. Under "Single Sign-On", hover your cursor over "OpenID" and click CONFIGURE.

  4. Return to the Duo Admin Panel. Under "Metadata", copy the Client ID and paste it into the Businessmap Client id field.

  5. Return to the Duo Admin Panel. Copy the Client Secret and paste it into the Businessmap Client secret field.

  6. Return to the Duo Admin Panel. Copy the Issuer URL and paste it into the Businessmap Issuer URL field.

  7. In the Businessmap web address bar, copy the base URL and paste it into the Duo Admin Panel Sign-In Redirect URLs field, under "Relying Party". Make note of the base URL. You will need it later.

    Example: If the URL in the Businessmap web address bar is https://yoursubdomain.kanbanize.com/ctrl_dashboard/page/1, then the base URL is https://yoursubdomain.kanbanize.com.

  8. In the Duo Admin Panel, type /oidc/auth at the end of the base URL in the Sign-In Redirect URLs field.

    Example: https://yoursubdomain.kanbanize.com/oidc/auth

    Duo Businessmap Relying Party Section
  9. Copy the Sign-In Redirect URLs and paste it into the Businessmap Redirect URL field.

Using SSO

You can log on to Businessmap SSO by navigating to your Businessmap SSO page, which is the base URL you noted earlier e.g., https://yoursubdomain.kanbanize.com. You will be automatically redirected to Duo Single Sign-On to begin authentication.

Active Directory Login

With Active Directory as the Duo SSO authentication source, enter the primary username (email address) on the Duo SSO login page and click or tap Next.

Duo Single Sign-On Login

Enter the AD primary password and click or tap Log in to continue.

Duo Single Sign-On Password

Enable Duo Passwordless to log in to Duo SSO backed by Active Directory authentication without entering a password in the future.

SAML Login

With another SAML identity provider as the Duo SSO authentication source, Duo SSO immediately redirects the login attempt to that SAML IdP for primary authentication. Users do not see the Duo SSO primary login screen.

Duo Authentication

Successful verification of your primary credentials by Active Directory or a SAML IdP redirects back to Duo. Complete Duo two-factor authentication when prompted and then you'll return to Businessmap to complete the login process.

Duo Universal Prompt

* Universal Prompt experience shown.

You can also log into Businessmap using Duo Central, our cloud-hosted portal which allows users to access all of their applications in one spot. Link to Businessmap in Duo Central by adding it as an application tile. Once the tile has been added, log into Duo Central and click the tile for IdP-initiated authentication to Businessmap.

Congratulations! Your Businessmap users now authenticate using Duo Single Sign-On.

See the full user login experience, including expired password reset (available for Active Directory authentication sources) in the Duo End User Guide for SSO.

Enable Remembered Devices

To minimize additional Duo two-factor prompts when switching between and your other Duo Single Sign-On SAML applications, be sure to apply a shared "Remembered Devices" policy to your SAML applications.
