Abstract
A network traffic monitoring system for redirecting network traffic between a client device and a cloud service includes a monitor proxy server configured as a network intermediary between the client device and the cloud service; and a published identity provider. The published identity provider is configured to receive a login request from a client device and to authenticate the client device at a federated identity provider. The published identity provider is configured to receive from the federated identity provider a redirect response including an identity assertion and a redirect web address to the cloud service. The published identity provider is configured to rewrite the redirect web address to the web address of the monitor proxy server. As a result, network traffic between the cloud service and the client device is routed through the monitor proxy server after user authentication using the published identity provider.
