1. Key Benefits and Implementation of Single Sign On
Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication process that allows the user to access multiple
applications with one of passwords. It is a standard procedure in large companies, where clients
access various resources connected to single LAN network. The user doesn’t need to remember
different sets of credentials as it can be confusing for them. The most common example of single
sign-in is Google. Once you are logged in into Gmail user can access every application of it like;
YouTube, Google drive, photos, and Play store. SOS authentication facilitates seamless network
resource usage. SSO mechanisms vary depending on applications. It is not suited for systems
requiring guaranteed access, as the loss of log-in credentials results into denial of access to all
networks. They are used with other techniques, such as smart cards and OTP tokens.
Key Benefits Of Using SSO:
• Eliminates the time required for entering credentials thus improving the productivity for
users and increasing conversation rates and makes sure user don’t need to hassle for
maintaining another set of credentials.
• Reduce complaints regarding passwords, thus reducing the cost associated with setting up of
several helpdesks.
• Minimize phishing, thus improving security.
Single Sign On uses Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) to simplify the login process.
SAML takes advantage of concepts in cryptography to distribute tokens from Onelogin to different
applications, granting application access in a manner that does not involve password. SAML is the
foundation of Onelogin SSO technology and is a great way to secure employees logins. It uses
secure tokens which are digitally signed and encrypted messages with authentication and

2. authorization data such user’s e-mail and company role. These tokens are passed from an identity
provider to a cloud application with an established trust relationship.
Although it is around for a quite while, it is gaining widespread adaptation as it improves customer
satisfaction. SSO is designed in such a way that it enhances the user experience during login by
making the process quick and simple. A user-friendly login process can be essential because the
login screen is where the first interaction between the user and inner halls of the website will be
taking place. If those users are customers, you would want their experience to be great from the
start. Sometimes during multiple login users forgets the password and need to call the helpdesk for
solving the issue, this takes a lot of time and productivity decreases. Hence having to remember the
password and key for only one time significantly cuts down the login time so the employee can
work efficiently and with accuracy.
The Primary Process of SSO:
• The first step is logging into the main service (Facebook, Google, Twitter, etc.)
• When a user visits a new service, it redirects you to the main page to check if you are logged
in at that one.
• An OTP token is returned.
• The OTP generated is verified by new service form parental server and only after successful
verification user is granted access.
