Single-Sign-On for your customers

An IAM system makes safety easy

By using single-sign-on (SSO) procedures, your customer only has to contact a single Log in to any application. He is already registered in all other applications. This saves users time and increases comfort by a multiple. Links between applications are possible without interruption in the user flow. Ideally noticeable the customer the change between different Applications no longer. The impression of a uniform, interlinked Service world.

Overview of the advantages of SSO

Using an identity and access management system

Single registration

Single-Sign-On for all applications

Better customer experience

No break in user flow when changing applications

Easy to try

The hurdle for testing various customer applications is significantly reduced

Combinations convertible

With central entry point for customers (e.g. customer portal)

Protocols

Increased security through standardised protocols

Token-based

Automatic containment of security incidents by token-based authentication

Professionalism and high customer satisfaction

Using SSO increases customer satisfaction, suggests Professionalism and high technical competence. At the same time, ensures that security improvements and changes in the authentication process directly for all applications. Of course an authorization takes place for each application, i.e. the identity & access management system ensures that the user has the necessary access rights.

How the Single-Sign-On Process works

First registration

The user has not opened any application yet and has not yet logged in.

simplified representation; to prevent certain Attack scenarios are added in concrete implementations Safety precautions

  1. The user opens an application he wants to use.
  2. The application notes that it does not yet know to which user is. It automatically leads the user to IAM system on.
  3. The user gives his access data in Identity & Access Management System. After successful login, the IAM system to the user's browser a "device" for the application and send him back to application.
  4. The user's browser shows the ID in the application before, the application verifies the ID and now knows which user it is in the case of a third party. The user is now logged in to the application.

After the first application

When using the next application, the user no longer needs to enter data enter.

  1. The user opens an application he wants to use.
  2. The application notes that it does not yet know to which user is. It automatically leads the user to Identity and Access Management System
  3. The IAM system already knows which Users. There is a "exit" to the user's browser for Application with and sends it back to application.
  4. The user's browser shows the ID in the application before, the application verifies the ID and now knows which user it is in the case of a third party. The user is now logged in to the application.

For this process no user interaction is required!

More advantages of single-sign-On in your IAM system

Safety advantages

No login details in the applications! A hacked application does not lead to compromise entire accounts.
Users are trained to be less susceptible to phishing
Improvements in the registration process affect all applications: Multi-factor authentication, WebAuthn, password policies etc.

Improves working time, development costs & occurrence

Users save valuable time when registering. The psychic hurdle to new visit drops.
Security improvements need only once in the identity management system to be configured. This saves development costs!
A uniform appearance is professional and improves the Customer loyalty
