Solution Summary
This guide describes Symantec Privileged Access Manager (PAM) integration with RSA ID Plus. Use this information to determine which use case and integration type your deployment will employ.
Use Case
Symantec Privileged Access Manager can be integrated with RSA using SAML My Page SSO and SAML Relying Party. When integrated, Symantec Privileged Access Manager users must authenticate with RSA to sign in to Symantec Privileged Access Manager.
Integration Types
My Page SSO provides Single-Sign-On (SSO) to Symantec Privileged Access Manager users leveraging RSA self-service portal My Page. Both SP-initiated SSO and IdP-initiated SSO are supported.
Modern Cloud-hosted SSO with My Page replaces the existing SAML SSO support with the IDR.
Existing SSO integrations using IDR My Applications continue to be supported and will be listed in this document as applicable.
Note: RSA will continue to maintain existing SAML SSO integrations using IDR My Applications. At a to-be-determined future date, RSA will announce the end-of-life (EOL) date for the SAML SSO support with the IDR. For more information Available Now: My Page SSO Enhancements.
Relying Party integration allows Symantec Privileged Access Manager users’ web browsers to be automatically redirected to Cloud Access Service (CAS) for authentication. With Relying Party integration, CAS can manage either additional authentication only or both primary authentication (for example, user ID and password) and additional authentication, depending on the service provider's capability.
Supported Features
This section shows all the supported features by integration type and by RSA components. Use this information to determine which integration type and RSA component your deployment will use. The next section in this guide contains the instruction steps for how to integrate RSA with Symantec Privileged Access Manager using each integration type.

Configuration Summary
This section contains instruction steps that show how to integrate Symantec Privileged Access Manager with RSA for cloud administrators using all of the integration types.
This document is not intended to suggest optimum installations or configurations. It is assumed that the reader has both working knowledge of all products involved, and the ability to perform the tasks outlined in this section. Administrators should have access to the product documentation for all products to install the required components.
All RSA and Symantec Privileged Access Manager components must be installed and working prior to the integration.
All the supported use cases of RSA with Symantec Privileged Access Manager require both server-side and client-side configuration changes. This section of the guide includes links to the appropriate sections for configuring both sides for each use case.
