Welcome to the revolution in access management, giving you the key to more streamlined, more secure online interactions.
Challenges solved by Single Sign-On
Before the Single Sign-On solution, organisations
wrestled with a multitude of authentication challenges
that hindered productivity and raised security concerns.
Employees were burdened with the need to remember and
manage an ever-growing list of usernames and passwords
across different applications and systems. This resulted
in a constant cycle of forgotten passwords, password
reset requests and lost time, ultimately affecting
morale as well as efficiency.
The complexity of managing multiple login credentials
opened the door to security vulnerabilities. Weak or
reused passwords, plus the potential for unauthorised
access to critical systems, posed significant risks. The
absence of a unified authentication solution made it
difficult to enforce consistent security policies across
an organisation, leaving sensitive data susceptible to
breaches.
On top of all these challenges, IT departments faced the
huge task of administering and maintaining a labyrinth
of user accounts and access permissions, diverting
resources away from more valuable, strategic
initiatives.

Unlock greater efficiency and seamless authentication
Single Sign-On is built into the SecurEnvoy Access
Management Solution, offering organisations the
ability to provide employees with secure,
frictionless access to all key resources.
SecurEnvoy Access Management
comes with flexible deployment options and a
comprehensive and ever growing list of pre-built
integrations with popular cloud applications.
Organisations can integrate with additional custom
apps through the dynamic app on-boarding mechanism
included in this single sign-on solution.
Single Sign-On, combined with the Conditional Access
Policy Engine, allows administrators to configure
access policies, providing precise control over who
can access specific resources and under what
conditions. This powerful combination empowers
organisations to strike the perfect balance between
security and usability.
With the ability to set rules based on user roles, device types, location and more, administrators can establish a granular and adaptive security framework. This means that, for instance, they can restrict access to sensitive data from unauthorised devices or locations; enforce multi-factor authentication when needed; and grant seamless access to trusted users in approved scenarios. In doing so, SSO and the Conditional Access Policy Engine create a robust defence against potential threats, all the time enhancing the user experience and ensuring compliance with security best practices.
How the SecurEnvoy Single Sign-On solution works
Put simply, SSO is designed to streamline the user
experience, enhance security and increase efficiency
within an organisation’s digital ecosystem. SSO operates
as an Identity Provider (IDP), to simplify and secure the
user authentication process, while also serving as a
portal to access all business critical applications.
When a user initiates the login process, they interact
with the SecurEnvoy SSO portal. Here’s how it works:
-
Authentication - The user accesses the SecurEnvoy SSO portal and provides their unique login credentials (e.g. username and password) or employs a stronger authentication method such as multi-factor authentication (MFA). This initial step ensures the users identity is verified securely.
-
Authorisation - After successful authentication, the SSO platform serves as an IDP, determining the user's access rights. It verifies which applications the user is authorised to access based on predefined access policies, roles and other criteria.
-
Single Sign-On - Once authorised, the user gains access to a central dashboard or portal within SecurEnvoy SSO. From this portal they can view and access all of their business critical applications, whether they are cloud based or on-premise.
-
Application Access - Users can seamlessly launch the desired applications from the SSO portal without needing to enter additional credentials. The SSO platform securely manages the transmission of authentication tokens or assertion information to these applications, so that access is granted without multiple logins being required.
A win-win solution
By functioning as an IDP and providing users with a
central portal to access their business-critical
applications, SSO promotes both productivity and
cybersecurity.
