Benefits of Single Sign-On (SSO) & Password Lockers

It isn't easy to remember different passwords for different applications and devices. But there's help!

How SSO Works:

Navigate to the website, application, or network you desire access to.

Instead of filling out your unique credentials each time, the SSO simply requires that input once.

Your sign-on status remains for as long as the determined session duration established by your IT department.

This allows for easier credential management for both individual users and administrators.

One potential negative is the desire for additional security. If you select a vendor that can implement MFA (multi-factor authentication), this can be achieved.

MFA would send a text message, for example, to the individual upon the first log-in attempt, thus requiring an additional access point for potential hackers to infiltrate in order to gain access.
