Hello,

I have successfully installed and configure shield on my test environment. My environment use an LDAP connectivity to perform authentification and group authorization. But my production environment will use an SSO authentification, and I would like to only use Shield for authorization when user are already connect.

Is it possible to configure it in version 1.3 ?
