Security
This section describes new security features in version 10.1.1.
Custom Kerberos Libraries
Effective in version 10.1.1, you can configure custom or native database clients and Informatica processes within an Informatica domain to use custom Kerberos libraries instead of the default Kerberos libraries that Informatica uses.
For more information, see the "Kerberos Authentication Setup" chapter in the Informatica 10.1.1 Security Guide.
Scheduler Service Support in Kerberos-Enabled Domains
Effective in version 10.1.1, you can use the Scheduler Service to run mappings, workflows, profiles and scorecards in a domain that uses Kerberos authentication.
Single Sign-on for Informatica Web Applications
Effective in version 10.1.1, you can configure single sign-on (SSO) using Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) to log into the Administrator tool, the Analyst tool and the Monitoring tool.
Security Assertion Markup Language is an XML-based data format for exchanging authentication and authorization information between a service provider and an identity provider. In an Informatica domain, the Informatica web application is the service provider. Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) 2.0 is the identity provider, which authenticates web application users with your organization's LDAP or Active Directory identity store.
For more information, see the "Single Sign-on for Informatica Web Applications" chapter in the Informatica 10.1.1 Security Guide.
