Single Sign-On: Secure User Authentication for Computers, Networks and Files

By ELATEC



How can a modern SSO authentication solution increase computer and network security and reduce cyber risks? ELATEC’s white paper explains what is important when choosing an RFID solution for single sign-on systems.

Single sign-on (SSO) gives users access to multiple systems, applications and files with a single login credential. That makes it absolutely essential to protect the integrity of user credentials and the login process. With cybercrime on the rise, usernames and passwords are no longer enough for SSO – and even one-time codes and push notifications are vulnerable.

Whether a small business with fewer than ten people, a large multinational corporation, or a government agency handling sensitive information is being operated, controlling access to data, systems, and networks is considered of paramount importance. While many organizations have moved to multifactor authentication (MFA) to increase SSO security, cyberattacks are growing more sophisticated, too. That’s why modern cybersecurity standards are increasingly calling for phishing-resistant forms of MFA for critical applications like SSO.

One simple and secure solution: user login for SSO via Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) or Near-Field Communication (NFC), combined with a simple user PIN or biometric factor.
