Benefits of Single Sign-On
For Users
Convenience
Users only need to remember a single set of ID and password to access all services.
Speed
Users don’t have to go through multiple registration and verification processes.
Security
Users have peace of mind knowing that their data are stored in a secure environment.
For Organisations
Increased Conversions
Users are more likely to use your services when they can sign up easily and securely.
Less Back-end Work
SSO means that you don’t have to develop and implement a new registration flow each time.
Reduced Risk
Apart from reduced hack risks, you won’t have to worry about storing sensitive data or data leaks.
Key Features
Centralised Info
Establish centralised management of applications, user IDs and passwords for the entire enterprise.
Reduce & Improve
Users can self-manage accounts; reducing operational costs on password resets and improving efficiency.
Security & Authentication
Enhanced security through multiple layers of authentication by trusted providers.
Social Integration
Leverage platforms such as Facebook or Google so users can be authenticated via their social accounts.
How SSO Fits into Your Business Ecosystem
Multiple Accounts, One Login
By centralising your authentication system and shared account data, the process authenticates the user for all the applications they have been given rights to, and eliminates further prompts when they switch applications during a particular session.

Single Sign-On Architecture
While the initial authentication of a user occurs between the client browser and the single sign-on authentication server, authentication between other parties are done via a temporary authentication token. This minimises exposure of user credentials and ensures that information is only released to authenticated parties.
