JumpCloud
SSO and active directory platform

JumpCloud Directory Platform
At the intersection of devices, identities, and access, JumpCloud’s cloud directory platform unifies the IT resources in any company’s infrastructure — anywhere work happens.
Unified Identity
- Single cloud directory that can connect to all IT resources. Seamless integrations with G Suite, Active Directory, HR systems, and others.
Device Management
- Manage Windows, Mac, and Linux devices from a single platform. From user provisioning and permissions control to MFA and full disk encryption enforcement, manage and secure your device with point-and-click simplicity.
Secure, Frictionless Access
- From web-based, mobile apps to on-premises and servers, securely access via SAML and LDAP.
Automate and Scale with API Services
- Manage your cloud directory platform with greater ease and efficiency using JumpCloud’s advanced automation tools, APIs, and extensive built-in features. Use our APIs or our PowerShell module to operate at scale by performing operations in bulk across users, devices, and groups — and save time for other high-value tasks.
Customize with RESTful API and SDKs
- Operate JumpCloud’s core directory services entirely through RESTful commands to automate and scale your infrastructure. Establish automatic onboarding and offboarding workflows, as well as workflows to manage and export your directory events data. You can also create custom integrations to allow third-party products and services to tap into JumpCloud for authentication — whether on-premises or remote — or other tasks.
Save Time and Scale with Automation
- Use a variety of in-console features and integrated tools to trigger workflows and take bulk actions in your directory: Execute commands to configure Mac, Windows, and Linux devices at scale. Schedule them to run in the future, on repeat, or in response to a webhook trigger. Use the CSV import and export features to migrate and update users at scale.
Manage with PowerShell Module
- Active Directory admins — put your PowerShell expertise to use. Programmatically control your directory from the command line using the JumpCloud PowerShell Module. Automate tasks such as importing and exporting users, customizing user attributes, binding users to devices, modifying data at scale, resetting passwords, triggering commands, and more. The JumpCloud PowerShell Module also works on Linux and Mac.

Single Sign-On (SSO) for All Apps
Secure, frictionless access to any resource, including web and on-premises applications, from anywhere.
Connectors for Popular Apps
- Provide access to apps via SAML 2.0, SCIM, and LDAP, including a library of hundreds of pre-configured connectors.
App Identity Management
- Create and manage user accounts in applications directly from JumpCloud with SAML JIT and SCIM, plus pass groups, roles, and permissions to those apps.
MFA at Login
- Layer multi-factor authentication (MFA) for SP- and IdP-initiated authentication to SAML-based apps and the JumpCloud User Portal.
Cloud LDAP
- Cloud-hosted LDAP provides you with all of the abilities of the LDAP protocol with none of the usual setup, maintenance, or failover requirements of traditional LDAP implementations. Since our cloud LDAP servers are already stood up and ready to use, all you need to do is point your LDAP-connected endpoints to JumpCloud and you’re on your way.
Complete Control
- Manage LDAP access from your browser through the JumpCloud Admin Portal, as well as through your command line or our RESTful APIs. With group-based access controls, you can streamline LDAP management to best suit your needs.
Hyper Secure
- Our OpenLDAP RFC 2307 compliant cloud LDAP offering is encrypted by LDAPS & Start TLS, ensuring your LDAP authentication remains as secure as possible. What’s more, you can require multi-factor authentication upon entry to LDAP resources to keep your data locked down.
AuthN to Apps & Services
- JumpCloud provides authentication for any application or service that can defer authentication via LDAP. Integrate with apps such as Atlassian Jira and Confluence or with DevOps infrastructures such as Jenkins, Ansible, Kubernetes, Docker, OpenVPN, and thousands of others.
NAS Authentication with LDAP & Samba Attributes
- LDAP-as-a-Service includes secure support for authentication and group-based authorization on Samba file servers or commercial NAS appliances such as Synology, QNAP, Morro Data, and more.
Cloud RADIUS
- Get the strength and security of the RADIUS protocol without building, maintaining, or monitoring physical servers. Quickly roll out managed RADIUS to your organization to authenticate users to Wi-Fi, VPNs, switches, and network devices securely.
Save Time and Money
- Leave the heavy lifting to JumpCloud, eliminate the costs associated with maintaining physical RADIUS servers, and use managed RADIUS as part of your core directory platform.
Ensure Network Security
- JumpCloud automatically generates complex passwords (shared secrets) for authentication between your WAPs and JumpCloud’s RADIUS servers. This maintains a secure connection between infrastructure endpoints while users log in with their individual credentials. An additional method, certificate trust, verify that your client desktops, laptops, and mobile devices are talking to the correct RADIUS server.
Control User Access
- Each RADIUS server you add to JumpCloud can be connected to user groups to provide network access at scale and to restrict specific networks or VPNs to specific groups of users. Further segmentation is possible through dynamic VLAN tagging.
