Single Sign-On
with WSO2 Identity Server
with WSO2 Identity Server
Implementing SSO is a fundamental requirement for any enterprise that is embarking on Customer IAM. It is an experience where users only need to sign in once to an application to be simultaneously authenticated to other connected applications until the session is over. With WSO2 Identity Server, you can set up SSO easily with minimum code changes, improving efficiency and the user experience.

What is Single Sign-On (SSO)?
It is the use of a single credential (eg: username and password) to log into several applications without prompting the user to log in multiple times. SSO can be implemented via open standards like OpenID connect, Security Assertion Markup language (SAML), WS-Federation, etc. Managing and federating users is an enormous task; however, a business should spend time focusing on increasing productivity and efficiency as well as the end-user experience, which is what SSO helps to do. A good SSO solution will help developers set it up with minimum code changes, and simple integrations with applications.
How to configure Single Sign-on
WSO2 Identity Server acts as an Identity Provider (IdP), centralizing a company’s identity and access management aspects. A user can access necessary applications without having to log into each and every one of them individually. For instance, if users log into application A, they would automatically have access to application B as well for the duration of that session without having to re-enter their credentials.
