Configuring a web browser for Integrated Windows Authentication

When you access the Cyber Protect web console from a Windows machine and a supported web browser, you can use Integrated Windows Authentication. Without Integrated Windows Authentication, you must specify a user name and password to access the Cyber Protect web console.

Configuring Edge, Opera, or Chrome

  • If you access the Cyber Protect web console from a machine in the same Active Directory domain as the machine running the management server, add the console's login page to the list of Local intranet sites. See how to do this in Adding the console to the list of local intranet sites.

  • If the machines are not in the same Active Directory domain, add the console's login page to the list of Trusted sites and enable the Automatic logon with current user name and password setting. See how to do this in Adding the console to the list of trusted sites.

You can also configure the browsers by using a Group Policy in the Active Directory domain.
