Assign users groups to a protected application
Objective: Protect an application using the Hosted SDP Gateway; no SAML integration, leveraging a local user.
- Example application that is locked down to only accept traffic from a Hosted SDP Gateway: http://demo.cloud.impulse.com/ (firewall on the application server only accepts traffic from the Hosted Gateway)
- The Hosted Gateway is an additional purchase. You will need to get it enabled to continue.Review the details on product bundling/packaging here to understand what is included or not in the standard MetaAcess: https://www.opswat.com/uploads/assets/files/Product-Guide_compressed-1.pdf
- After upgrading, enable the Hosed Gateway.
- Create the protected application, pointing at the demo app: demo.cloud.impulse.com . You will need to Enable Secure Access, first, within Secure Access > Protected Apps. Click Add Protected App, then choose SDP Method. Fill in the following information:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Application Name | Demo |
| Access Mode | Monitor |
| Application Type | Web Application |
| Application URL | http://demo.sdp.opswat.com |
| Ports | 80 TCP |
