SSO Overview
Single Sign-On (SSO) setup simplifies user authentication and access management across multiple applications within an organization. It allows users to securely authenticate once and access various services without having to re-enter credentials. Integrating your SSO providers with Finout enhances security and streamlines administration by reducing the risk of credential-based attacks.
