Customer SSO is an easy way to let your customers, citizens, partners and contractors log in just once and then transparently and securely authenticate to all the digital services and applications they have been granted rights to – eliminating the need for multiple logins or credentials.
Easily enable SSO across all your applications, whether in the cloud, on-premises, or a hybrid of both.
No more multiple registrations and accounts to manage. Improve the customer experience and reduce credential management support costs without sacrificing security.
Supports all the identity standards – OpenID Connect, OAuth, CIBA, SAML.
Allow users to login using dozens of reusable / portable identity providers, enterprise identity directories, MFA form factors and passwordless.
Benefits of Customer SSO
Reduce the number of identity credentials you expect your customers (and your IT admins) to manage
Single Login
Maintain seamless customer journeys with transparent logins across all application and services – authenticate the customer just once.
BYOI
Use any Identity Provider imaginable. From enterprise user directories to the millions of reusable identities across the BYOI ecosystem.
Security
With less password fatigue, users will expose or reuse passwords less. Centralised authentication control maintains consistent best practices and use of MFA or Passwordless.
User Experience
Frictionless and flexible login and authentication options. Engaging with applications will be made faster, easier and more secure.
Eliminate Support Desk Costs
With less login credentials to forget, users will have less impact on support help desks.
Centralised Policy
Deliver the right identity attributes to internal or external applications ensuring compliance to privacy regulations. Centrally control access to resources or applications.
The Identity Broker Engine
Optimised for Single Sign-On customer and B2B engagement
The Identity Broker Engine enables the smart exchange of user attributes to offer Zero Trust networking while respecting user privacy. The core functioning includes:
Normalising data
from different providers to simplify application integration – e.g. bank sends date of birth in mm/DD/yyyy format and mobile operator yyyy-mm-dd.
Masking user data
according to minimum information disclosure principles – e.g., bank sends date of birth in full, and the Identity Platform can send to the integrated application that the user is “over 18”.
Providing pseudonymization
only send a token that the user is the same as last time with no other user identifiable information.
Providing anonymisation
ensure the user is real and has the required permissions (roles and attributes) but send a unique token each time to prevent tracking or collusion between recipients.
Directory mapping
using a unique identifier sent by a third-party identity provider to find a user in a local database.
External service queries
using a unique identifier sent by a third-party identity provider to find a user in a local database by resolving a common attribute through a commercial or in-house web service.
The Identity Broker Engine is used to efficiently integrate data sources such as AD, LDAP or SQL, so the user identity-related data can be retrieved and utilised on a per-session basis. The result is an individual identity profile, specific to each connected application or outbound federation link.
The identity attributes of the user are collected and modified so that they will match the access and authorisation requirements of the application that the user is trying to access. Only those attributes needed for functioning and authorised by the user are shared.
If the user moves to another application and needs a different set of identity attributes, the Identity Broker Engine will automatically create a correct user profile. The Identity Broker Engine allows for a creation of an environment where privacy-by-design principles are followed by allowing the applications to receive the exact and minimum amount of personal data and where needed, anonymising attributes.
Implementing SSO for Customer and B2B Identity
SSO delivered as Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS), On-Premises at your own datacenter, or a Hybrid of both
Ubisecure Customer SSO (Single Sign-On) allows a customer, partner or contractor to log into one application or one network domain, and then will be logged in automatically to other associated applications or domains. Give users a single identity and one set of credentials for all your applications, whether mobile, web, enterprise or legacy.
