Single Sign-On security solves password management challenges

Password security can be a major headache for users and IT departments. Passwords are meant to improve security, but password policy can be so complex that users end up writing passwords on sticky notes and leaving them on their monitor or 'hidden' beneath the keyboard-hardly the kind of security password policy is meant to deliver. Single Sign-On security can address this dilemma by allowing users to sign-on once and gain access to all authorized applications. But some Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions raise as many issues as they solve-they require costly code or directory changes. Some SSO solutions mandate inconvenient and unproductive workflow changes. For a Single Sign-On security solution that is both easy to use and affordable to implement and manage, savvy companies worldwide are turning to Imprivata.
