How Can ID-SSO Benefit Your Organization?
A federated identity is a single user identity that can be used to access a group of systems or web sites bound by the federation. Without federated identity, users are forced to manage different credentials for every system they use. This collection of IDs and passwords becomes difficult to manage and control over time, offering inroads for identity theft.
Federated identity management builds on a trust relationship established between an organization and a person. A federated identity makes it possible for the end-user to use this same trust relationship to access information with another, related system or company without establishing new credentials. Ultimately, federated identity offers businesses, governments, employees and consumers a more convenient and secure way of accessing distributed resources without losing control over sensitive identity information, and is a key component in driving the use of e-commerce and personalized data services, as well as Web-based services.
ID-SSO plays a critical role behind the scene, providing transparent single sign-on security access to users without getting into their way.
