FAQ
1) How does JumpCloud SSO improve SentinelOne console security?
JumpCloud SSO replaces shared admin credentials by enforcing individual user authentication, improving auditability, access control, and reducing credential compromise risks.

The primary required attribute is the user email address, which must map correctly between JumpCloud and SentinelOne for successful SSO authentication.
3) Do you need to disable local SentinelOne accounts after enabling SSO?
It is recommended to restrict or limit local accounts after SSO is verified to ensure administrators authenticate only through JumpCloud-managed identities.
