What is Universal Login and how does it work?

Universal Login or Universal Single Sign-On (SSO) is a centralized authentication system that allows users to authenticate once and access multiple apps. It streamlines user authentication, reduces the risk of security breaches, and improves the overall user experience by eliminating the need for multiple logins. The core of Universal Login are Identity Providers (IdPs), which verify a user's identity and manage the authentication processes. Some popular IdPs include Google, Microsoft Azure AD, and Okta. Universal SSO offers greater flexibility in diverse authentication scenarios compared to traditional SSO and can support multiple external IdPs and apps. Benefits of Universal Login include improved security, simplified compliance, enhanced scalability, and streamlined onboarding for new users. Implementing best practices such as secure token management, strong password policies, and regular audits is crucial for ensuring the effectiveness and security of Universal Login systems.
