SSO password solutions enable users while ensuring security

Passwords are a headache for most users - and for most IT departments. The average employee has a dozen or more passwords to keep track of, and those passwords have to change frequently in order to comply with the organizations security policies. Consequently passwords are often forgotten, necessitating costly calls to the IT help desk. Users frequently share passwords to avoid administrative hassle and work faster, but this risks security breaches and creates compliance issues.

Single Sign On (SSO) password authentication offers an easy solution to password headaches by allowing users to sign into the network just once and then authenticate to all the applications they are authorized for without entering additional passwords. But frequently SSO password technology is quite expensive and difficult to deploy and manage, making it difficult to justify the investment. For organizations seeking an SSO password solution, Imprivata OneSign® Single Sign On (SSO) password management is a non-intrusive, affordable and easier to manage solution. That is why organizations around the world are turning to Imprivata.
