Single Sign On

Confirm supports Federated Single Sign-On, a common approach for an application to rely on an external identity provider. It provides one stop solution to access all the applications User want to use.

Traditionally, enterprise applications are deployed and run within the company network. To obtain information about users such as user profile and group information, many of these applications are built to integrate with corporate directories. More importantly, a user’s credentials are typically stored and validated using the directory.

However, with increased collaboration and the move towards the cloud, many applications have moved beyond the boundaries of a company’s domain. Federated Authentication is the solution to this problem.
