SSO Federation

SSO

SSO (Single Sign On) allows the end users to provide their credentials once and obtain access to multiple resources. The key point of the concept is that the users are not prompted for their credentials anew on access to participating resources until the active session is terminated. The participating resources are typically related, but still remain independent. Specifically, each system may have own authorization system, providing system-specific roles to the end users.

Federation

Identify Federation (aka Federation or Federated Identity) allows the end users to use the same set of credentials to obtain access to multiple resources. This gives an advantage to the software systems that utilize Identify Federation, both from security and usability perspective – the end users do not have to maintain multiple sets of credentials.

Federated architecture

Connect any user to any application from any device using any identity authority. Companies no longer have a single system of record for identity. Federation is necessary to connect disparate identity stores.

Web, mobile and API security

Deploy an off-the-shelf solution to secure application content and APIs for partners and developers. Companies can now create a path from their legacy web access management solutions to their next-generation mobile and API needs.

Unified management

Reduce the complexity and risk associated with managing public and private cloud environments. Employ a unified approach to security infrastructure and service administration.

Cloud centric

As enterprises increasingly move to the cloud, the need for private and public cloud interoperability is a business requirement.

Self service

Offer a user-driven onboarding experience for customers and partners, eliminating the need to engage administrators. IT organizations benefit from a self-service model as they add new applications and integrate with legacy and cloud environments.

Built on standards

Eleusi invests in the advancement of identity standards via participation in the standards bodies. This work provides industry-wide benefits and enables the creation of useful features, delivering broad interoperability in advance of the competition.
