Entering your credentials each time you have to access business applications? It's time consuming & affects productivity. Now increase productivity & save time by implementing Next Gen Single Sign-On Solution.

Build a trusted experience between the workforce and the entire enterprise.

Reduces support calls: Users that have one password to access all applications won’t require assistance.

Improves user experience: Since users don’t have to jump between URLs and reset passwords, this saves time.

Reduces security risks: Users can use their SSO password from anywhere and any device without having any fear of threat to security.

The biggest misconception about Single Sign-On is that it weakens security. This misconception is solely based on the fact that since there is only one password for all your applications, your data and security is at a higher chance of facing a breach.

Contrary to the above statement, when there is just one password for all applications, people will create a stronger password and it can be easily remembered instead of writing it down, which reduces the chances of a security breach.

Business Benefits of SSO

More users sign up: There is a lower barrier to entry hence more users sign up.

Less work on back end: While reducing your hack risk is important, even more important is not having to reset people’s passwords every five minutes. The trusted authenticator handles all authentication and password management.

Understand User Behavior: With Single window login to access all the apps in the organization, helps understand usage of different applications among employees & relative data collected without all the hassle associated with it.

Single Sign-On integrates with identity provider tools, securing your application access in a way that works best for your business.

EASY MANAGEMENT: Using Single Sign-On syncs the passwords and user information hence making accessibility between different applications and resources easier.

HIGH SECURITY: Single Sign-On can uniquely identify a user and hence it complies with very demanding safety standards.

EASY TO USE: Single Sign-On improves the user experience by avoiding interruptions caused by password requests to access their IT tools.

Open Authorization (OAuth) is a framework that enables the end user’s account information to be used by third-party services without exposing the user’s password.

OAuth acts as an intermediary on behalf of the end user by providing the service with an access token that authorizes a specific amount of information to be shared.

When a user attempts to access an application from a service provider, the service provider will send a request to the identity provider for authentication. The service provider will then verify the authentication and log the user in.

SAML:- Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an open standard which contains user identity and attributes information in the form of an XML document.

OAuth2.0:- OAuth2 allows third party applications to authorize users by providing an access token.

Open ID Connect:- OpenID Connect is an identity layer that operates on top of OAuth 2.0.

LDAP:- LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a protocol that enables anyone to locate organizations, individuals and other resources such as files and devices in a network.

CAS:- The Central Authentication Service (CAS) is a single sign-on protocol for web applications. Its purpose is to allow a user to access multiple websites by using a single set of credentials only once.
