SSO authentication for HEC

Is supporting SAML SSO authentication for end users on the roadmap? Having to wait for an OTP via email for trusting senders etc is not a great user experience, to put it mildly.

Are you using an external IdP for authenticating your users?

Yes, we are using Entra ID (nee Azure AD) for all authentication these days - including admin access to the Check Point portal. Everything should already b in place for the end users to authenticate that way as well.

Without any fanfare, this feature appears to have been implemented. Now my users can choose between Microsoft SSO or email OTP, that’s great!
