Rebranding the end user login page

As a BMC Helix Single Sign-On administrator, when you have fully configured a realm for authentication, you can change default branding of the BMC Helix SSO login page in accordance with your company standards and requirements. BMC Helix SSO login page is displayed to end users when they log in to any of the applications belonging to the same realm.

Important

You do not need to rebrand the login page if a realm is configured only for one of the following authentication methods: Cert, Kerberos, Preauth, SAML, and OpenID Connect. However, if these authentication methods are a part of the authentication chain, you can rebrand the login page.
