What is a Single Sign-On?
Definition
Authentication method allowing users to access multiple applications with one set of credentials through identity providers like Okta, Azure AD, or Google Workspace. SSO improves security by centralizing authentication and reduces password fatigue while enabling centralized access management."
Why This Matters
SSO with your identity provider enables centralized user management and enhanced security. Without SSO, you manage separate credentials and cannot instantly revoke access when employees depart.
