Introduction

OpsRamp provides a rich set of capabilities to help you manage users' access to OpsRamp. Access controls encompass these areas:

  • Authentication: How users are authenticated to access OpsRamp.

Authentication

OpsRamp supports the following authentication options.

Native user management and authentication

OpsRamp comes with built-in user management and authentication. You can create user accounts and provide authenticated access using OpsRamp native authentication capability.

Single Sign-On (SSO)

OpsRamp integrates with several SAML compliant SSO providers. OpsRamp user accounts can be authenticated against these SSO providers.

Two-factor authentication

OpsRamp supports multiple two-factor authentication options for more security. Two-factor options include support for:

  • Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP)
  • FIDO Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) based solutions.

Role-based access control

Using roles, you can control what actions an authenticated user can do within OpsRamp. You can restrict users' access in terms of:

  • Resources that a user can manage. For example, a user can only manage network resources.
  • Credentials to which a user has access. For example, a user can only view non-admin credentials on servers.
  • Actions that a user can take. For example, a user cannot launch a remote consoles.
  • Locations (IP addresses) from which a user can access OpsRamp. For example, a user can only access OpsRamp from within the corporate network.
