Are your users required to remember and maintain a number of different usernames and passwords to get access regularly-used information?
Within the enterprise, there are many disparate directories across which identity attributes, policies, and preferences cannot flow. This lack of fluidity, at a minimum, has users needing to log in to each application or data store separately. With more usernames and more passwords to remember, there will inevitably be an increase in calls to the help desk for a memory/password refresh.
When end-users have to constantly request access-privileges and remember passwords across a multitude of systems, productivity suffers. Moreover, when end-user access must be quickly removed across those same systems – one system at a time - security suffers.

An integral component of any identity management program is to enable Single Sign-On (SSO) for employees, customers, and other system users.
Single Sign-on (SSO) allows enterprise network users to seamlessly access all authorized network resources, on the basis of a single authentication that is performed when they initially access the network. SSO can improve the productivity of network users, reduce the cost of network operations, and improve network security.
Benefits of Single Sign-On include the following:
