Client Management / SSO

Client Management / Single sign-on (SSO) is a general term we are using to describe session and user authentication services that permit users to use one set of login credentials (e.g., name and password) to access multiple applications. The service authenticates the end user for all the applications the user has been given rights to and eliminates further prompts when the user switches applications during the same session. On the back end, SSO is helpful for logging user activities as well as monitoring user accounts.  These services are becoming more important as the range of software solutions grows, and teachers and students find password management has become too cumbersome.
