Single Sign-On enables users to authenticate once and gain access to multiple applications without repeated logins. SSO relies on centralized identity providers that handle authentication and issue credentials to connected systems.
Configuration involves integrating applications with the identity provider and defining trust relationships. Authentication protocols ensure credentials are exchanged securely. User attributes and group memberships determine access permissions.
SSO improves user experience by reducing password fatigue and simplifies administration by centralizing access control. Misconfiguration can introduce security risks, so careful testing is required before deployment.
