Azure B2C Integration
This documentation provides information for integrating with Azure Active Directory B2C (Business-to-customer)
Note: This is an additional authentication method. It is not replacing any existing methods, and by default will be turned off.
Azure AD B2C is built on the same technology as Microsoft Entra ID but is a completely separate service. However, like Entra ID, it will handle threats like denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, password spray, or brute force attacks. As well as supporting various forms of MFA, it can also support other identity providers like Facebook, X (Twitter), and any identity provider that supports OAuth 1.0, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and SAML protocols. This will give you, as an organisation, much more choice on the authentication options that you make available for ebs users.
The following prerequisites are required before completing configuration steps outlined in this documentation
-
Administrative access to an Azure B2C Tenant.
-
Access to amend Institution Settings in ebs.
The following guide takes you through the steps to set up a local identity provider. However ebs and B2C can be integrated with other identity providers, as long as they provide an email address.
