Single Sign On authentication

For those requiring additional protection...

What is SSO authentication?

Single sign-on is an authentication scheme that allows a user to log in with a single ID and password to any of several related, yet independent, software systems. True single sign-on allows the user to log in once and access services without re-entering authentication factors

What are the benefits of SSO?

SSO reduces the number of attack surfaces because users only log in once each day and only use one set of credentials. Reducing login to one set of credentials improves enterprise security. When employees have to use separate passwords for each app, they usually don't.

How does it work in Event?

If i am a single factor authentication user...

Meta data is shared with the customer IT and Event IT.

The customer IT will create the SSO process.

A superuser is created in Event.

The superuser will create the account and all products required by that account.

The superuser will 'invite' users to products.

The users will not create accounts themselves in Event but instead login in through the SSO access with Event creating the link between products and user.

The user now has access through their own company login credential to Event.

Its not working for me?

But i have been told to use SSO!

Remember, SSO requires your business to have implemented the process also.
