Prerequisites for Omnissa Access

This configuration applies to organizations that use Omnissa Access as the Identity Provider (IDP) or for organizations where Omnissa Access will broker authentication for third party IDPs. This is a big deal because it means that IDPs like Ping Federate who do not offer a PSSO Extension app can now be used with PSSO.

This method does not currently support Secure Enclave for PSSO. This method is only available when PSSO is configured to use Password Sync.

Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub for macOS 25.11 or higher is required.

Recommended Configuration Summary

For this configuration refer to Omnissa’s tech zone article for a detailed walk through of how to configure this technology:
