User Guide

The following SiteMinder security agents are tested and supported for SSO with Hyperion
products:
● SiteMinder Policy Server 5.5 SP 2
● SiteMinder Web Agent 5.5 SP 2
Note:
The corporate user directories configured with Shared Services must be trusted when SSO from
SiteMinder is enabled. This is because Shared Services does not store a password in the token
when a security agent is used.
Special Considerations
SiteMinder is a Web only solution. Desktop applications and their addins (for example,
Microsoft Excel and Report Designer) cannot use authentication through SiteMinder.
Hyperion products are supported only on NTLM and LDAP-enabled user directories (including
MSAD).
