SafeSign Single Sign On provides strong authentication for users who want to use a single identity and credential for simple streamlined access to web and Windows desktop applications

Security is more important than ever. The web based services and desktop applications used by today’s organizations are increasingly the target of fraudulent activities. But employees, customers and management still demand simplicity and ease of use.

The Single Sign On (SSO) model simplifies and streamlines user logon, reducing the number of passwords that need to be remembered and presented. Security policies can be enforced transparently and seamlessly. However, the benefits of SSO are significantly reduced if it relies solely on static passwords. SafeSign Single Sign On takes the SSO model and applies the essential added security of built in support for a wide selection of strong authentication.
