You need to configure NiFi to use a login identity provider such as LDAP or Kerberos, and then navigate to the secure URL of the NiFi web ui, for example https://localhost:8443/nifi. If you have a certificate in your browser and get prompted, make sure to decline otherwise it will use that to authenticate.

There are many reasons covering how to configure LDAP or Kerberos:
