# Security

Security management in JMap encompasses several aspects.

Identity management can be handled by JMap Server or assigned to another system, such as Microsoft Active Directory, an LDAP directory, or identity managers with web-based single sign-on (SSO) such as OpenID Connect or SAML. See the [Managing Users](/en2/administrator/jmap-server-administrator-manual/security/managing-users.md) and [Managing User Accounts and Groups](/en2/administrator/jmap-server-administrator-manual/security/managing-user-accounts-and-groups.md) sections for more information. JMap also supports single sign-on for JMap Pro users. See the [Single Sign-On for JMap Pro](/en2/administrator/jmap-server-administrator-manual/security/managing-user-accounts-and-groups/single-sign-on-for-jmap-pro.md) section for more information.

Access management, or rather permission management, is applied to all the resources handled by JMap. This includes user access to JMap applications as well as the access permissions of JMap administrators. See the [Managing Permissions](/en2/administrator/jmap-server-administrator-manual/security/managing-permissions.md) section for more information.

JMap allows you to easily use the HTTPS protocol for JMap Admin and for the various applications. See section [Using HTTPS with JMap](/en2/administrator/jmap-server-administrator-manual/security/using-https-with-jmap.md) for more information.
