Single Sign-On (SSO)</h3>\n<p>Single Sign-On (SSO)  is a method of authentication that allows websites to use other trustworthy sites to verify users. Single sign-on enables users to log in to any independent application with a single ID and password.</p>\n<p>SSO is an essential feature of an Identity and Access Management (IAM) platform for controlling access. Verifying user identity is essential when it comes to knowing which permissions a user will have. The <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/\">LoginRadius Identity platform</a> is one example of managing access that combines user identity management solutions with SSO solutions.</p>\n<p>Enhanced user experience is one of the most valuable benefits of SSO. As repeated logins are no longer required, customers can enjoy a modern digital experience. The benefits for enterprises include increased customer loyalty and higher conversion rates.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/resource/loginradius-single-sign-on/\"><img src=\"/970abf5b3c4e78379ad5bf97a519b62c/SSO-DS.webp\" alt=\"SSO-DS\"></a></p>\n<p>Hence, SSO is undeniably the perfect solution to improve centralized access between devices or applications without compromising security and user experience since users can jump from one app to another without friction. </p>\n<p>Apart from this, cross-platform integration and authentication are other reasons businesses must put their best foot forward in adopting a single sign-on solution for their platforms. </p>\n<h3 id=\"2-go-passwordless\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#2-go-passwordless\" aria-label=\"2 go passwordless permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>2.

And this token is further submitted by the web browser to the partner’s SSO during a new session.</p>\n<p>The federated SSO works by offering a partnership role involving two parties, including the service provider (SP) and identity provider (IdP). The identity provider provides a digital token, and the service provider validates the digital token and creates a new session offering access to the program/application.</p>\n<p>With federated SSO, businesses can overcome the hassle of resetting passwords and ensure their customers can flawlessly switch between applications/platforms of different service providers without worrying about their security.</p>\n<p>Businesses requiring higher peak load management and an identity management system to provide real-time load management should choose a reliable CIAM solution offering federated SSO capabilities.</p>\n<p>In a nutshell, fed SSO bridges the centralized access and authentication gap between multiple platforms and enables users with cloud identity services to access services offered by one or more partner businesses/media without needing a separate login at the partner platform.</p>\n<h2 id=\"in-conclusion\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#in-conclusion\" aria-label=\"in conclusion permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>In Conclusion</h2>\n<p>Robust authentication security coupled with a great user experience is what it takes to build long-lasting customer relationships.

This is particularly important during digital interaction between the customer and business. </p>\n<p>If you are a customer, the authentication of your identity could contain various methods. You are either asked for something only you know, such as a password; something you have, such as an encryption token; or something you are, like the identity (User ID). </p>\n<p>When one of these methods is used in combination with the User ID, it is referred to as Single Factor Authentication. Single Factor Authentication is not bullet-proof, yet security professionals and regulators recognize the need to balance out security and convenience to match the mutual satisfaction between the business and the consumer. </p>\n<p>Using two of the above-mentioned three methods is called Dual Factor Authentication and is considered to provide far more security, yet is not considered cost-effective. Single Factor Authentication can be nonetheless strong, if the method is selected properly. </p>\n<p>Let us briefly discuss the above-mentioned three methods of customer authentication.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Password-based Authentication</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>Password is the most common Single Factor Authentication method. Evidently, customers prefer to recall their passwords quickly, therefore often neglect complexity, which is a requirement to keep your account safe. </p>\n<p>It is recommended to keep the password case-sensitive with at least six characters long, while including at least two numbers and symbols. That kind of complexity ensures the security of your account, since the password will require the calculated amount of ten trillion attempts to crack, in case of an attack. This is why the debates are still being hold, whether customer-generated or provider-generated passwords are a better warrant of security.</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Knowledge-based Authentication</strong></li>\n</ul>\n<p>KBA, or Knowledge-based Authentication is a common method for securely aiding a customer in the recovery of their password. Since the challenge in this case lies in authentication, that the request of a password recovery was indeed submitted by the holder of the User ID.

The main aim of email authentication is to provide verifiable information about the email message the recipient received. That information verifies the ownership of the domain of any Message Transfer Agent who participated in the email exchange. This reassures your recipients of the <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/identity/secure-email-address-website/\">authenticity of your email messages</a>, that you are indeed who you claim to be.</p>\n<p>Originally, the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol had no solution to validate email messages. This was taken as an advantage by spammers, scammers, and spoofers to conduct various kinds of fraudulent activities. </p>\n<p>Evidently, many customers would leave businesses due to their affiliation with such activities. If I subscribe to a service providing the best deals for summer vacations, for example, shall a Nigerian prince email me the next day with a similar domain, urgently requesting my credit card credentials to bring fortune to his kingdom and my family?</p>\n<p>To reduce the possibility of either of these fraudulent activities, many email authentication protocols have been developed. The ones used most are SPF, DKIM, and DMARC. They all serve a different purpose, but overall warrant email authentication.</p>\n<h2 id=\"authentication-customer-acquisition--retention\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#authentication-customer-acquisition--retention\" aria-label=\"authentication customer acquisition  retention permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>Authentication, Customer Acquisition &#x26; Retention</h2>\n<p>You can already see how these authentication methods greatly benefit customer acquisition and retention. If your customers have a guarantee, that by registering for your services and providing your servers with their contact information no spoofer, attacker,  or scammer shall reach them, that improves the business relationship. </p>\n<p>But as we were brief, how else can email authentication help customer acquisition and retention? </p>\n<p>With email authentication and email validation, you also greatly impact your email reputation. That in return directly affects your email deliverability rate. Of course, that is not the sole determining factor of your email deliverability rate. </p>\n<p>However, if your emails are authenticated and have less affiliation with fraudulent activities, that has a significant impact on the deliverability on its own. With a positive email reputation and email deliverability, your email campaigns reach your customers. And your emails have various objectives in terms of <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/growth/improve-customer-relation-brand-identity/\">customer acquisition and retention</a>.</p>\n<p>Are you sending an email to present your customer with an exclusive offer to encourage them to prolong the business partnership, inform of a new feature, or simply aid them in updating their password? In this example, emails serve a different purpose, yet are united under the same aim - to retain a customer. With that in mind, how do we improve our email deliverability?</p>\n<h3 id=\"email-deliverability\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#email-deliverability\" aria-label=\"email deliverability permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>Email Deliverability</h3>\n<p>Internet Service Providers enforce restrictions on reaching the recipients' main inboxes to fight the ongoing spam and scam. This works in favor of recipients, yet at times might work against them. They might miss important emails to update their password or check their product delivery status, however, that is a mistake on the sender’s end, not the recipient’s.</p>\n<p>To improve your email reputation with ISP and therefore impact your email deliverability, consider the following points:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Send emails only to users who want to receive them</li>\n<li>Make the unsubscription option easy to reach</li>\n<li>Remove emails with high bounce rates</li>\n<li>Be consistent with your email campaigns</li>\n<li>Integrate email authentication and email validation</li>\n</ul>\n<p>These points do not summerize the entire <a href=\"https://mailtrap.io/blog/email-deliverability/\">guide on email deliverability</a>, yet do overview them very briefly. Email authentication increases email deliverability, since it prevents fraudulent email activities, like spoofing, <a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/identity/phishing-for-identity/\">phishing</a>, and more. Customers will receive your emails in their main inboxes and will know, that your emails are safe to interact with, as a legitimate source sends them.</p>\n<p>In an otherwise scenario, not integrating email authentication and email validation results in poor email deliverability. To your customers, this is:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Preventing them from regaining immediate access to their account</li>\n<li>Preventing them from being reminded of your existence</li>\n<li>Preventing from being notified of a new feature</li>\n</ul>\n<h2 id=\"in-conclusion\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#in-conclusion\" aria-label=\"in conclusion permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>In Conclusion</h2>\n<p>We briefly overviewed the importance of customer authentication and email authentication.

They are also among the most risky, as they require users to decide on a series of letters, numbers and symbols that will not be guessed by any other entity.</p>\n<p>They may be written down and lost or accidentally revealed - and, with so many different passwords required for multiple sites and platforms, many users resort to using the same phrase for each one, which means that a single data breach could be disastrous for them.</p>\n<p>While many businesses that require the use of passwords by their employees now implement regular password expiry to protect against these risks, this comes with issues of its own.</p>\n<p>In general, passwords are becoming less and less popular as a method of authenticating identity.</p>\n<h3 id=\"2-multi-factor-authentication\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#2-multi-factor-authentication\" aria-label=\"2 multi factor authentication permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>2. Multi-factor authentication</h3>\n<p>This form of authentication requires an individual signing in to undertake a further “step” in order to prove their identity. </p>\n<p>For example, they may enter a username and password to pass the first stage, but the site, app or platform may then generate a code which is sent to a designated email address or mobile device associated with their account. The user then has to enter that code into a particular field in order to gain access.</p>\n<p>While this approach is generally more secure than a basic password, many fraudsters will already have access to their victim’s email account - rendering certain types of multi-factor authentication useless. </p>\n<p>What is more, this method includes an additional friction point, which makes it less user-friendly and potentially frustrating.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/resource/ebook/buyers-guide-to-multi-factor-authentication/\"><img src=\"/b319bf6ed09ba90828b27b6cc2c2eb75/EB-GD-to-MFA.webp\" alt=\"EB-GD-to-MFA\"></a></p>\n<h3 id=\"3-biometric-authentication\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#3-biometric-authentication\" aria-label=\"3 biometric authentication permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>3.

Token-based authentication</h3>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.loginradius.com/blog/identity/pros-cons-token-authentication/\">Token-based authentication</a> is a method that allows a slightly more seamless experience. </p>\n<p>The user is required to enter some information - i.e. a password, username etc, to generate a digitally encrypted “token”, which then allows them to utilise a certain app, platform or site until a certain time period has passed, or until they log out or exit the system.</p>\n<p>The token may be: </p>\n<ul>\n<li>a device such as a USB or a smart card that is connected to the machine being used</li>\n<li>a wearable or carriable item that uses contactless technology and need only be placed near to the machine</li>\n<li>a software token</li>\n<li>a JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) web token</li>\n</ul>\n<p>In most cases, the user must enter a single password and username when initially logging into the system with an encrypted token - but, once they have done this, they are able to browse and utilise different sites, platforms and apps without having to enter log in details.</p>\n<p>Once their session is finished, the machine-generated token is destroyed - meaning it cannot be stolen or replicated. A new token is generated when the user next logs in. </p>\n<h3 id=\"5-cryptographic-authentication\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#5-cryptographic-authentication\" aria-label=\"5 cryptographic authentication permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>5. Cryptographic authentication</h3>\n<p>This form of authentication involves the creation of temporary cryptographic “keys” in order to allow authorised parties access to a particular resource.</p>\n<p>The process works in this way:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cryptographic “keys” are generated by way of asymmetric encryption and assigned to each authorised user</li>\n<li>These keys are then “stored” in every secure system to which the user may require access in the future</li>\n<li>When the user requests access to any of these systems, the server they are using will request that the user apply their private key as a method of authentication - for example, by providing an encrypted code. The private key may then be used to unencrypt the code and enable the user to access the system</li>\n</ul>\n<h2 id=\"in-conclusion\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#in-conclusion\" aria-label=\"in conclusion permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>In Conclusion</h2>\n<p>“With no need to remember and enter complicated and insecure passwords, “frictionless”, password-free login methods appear to be the way of the future,” comments Ruban Selvanayagam of <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https://www.propertysolvers.co.uk/we-buy-any-house/\"> UK buying firm Property Solvers </a> who have been investigating how to deploy cryptography and blockchain technology into the real estate industry.</p>\n<p>From user “behaviour” analysis to asymmetric encryption, we can expect the authentication experience to flow more and more easily as the metaverse develops.

This month also serves as a reminder for organizations to update their security measures before cyber criminals do it for them!</p>\n<p>This year’s theme — “<strong><em>See Yourself in Cyber</em></strong>” — reminds us that while cybersecurity may seem complicated at first, it's really all about people.</p>\n<p>We all want to feel safe and secure online—and now more than ever, we need to stay vigilant and aware of potential threats. In recent years, technology has evolved rapidly, and so have cybercrimes. Cyberattacks are rising yearly; whether ransomware attacks or spoofing attacks or phishing attacks.</p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-implement-cybersecurity-awareness-month-in-the-workplace\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#how-to-implement-cybersecurity-awareness-month-in-the-workplace\" aria-label=\"how to implement cybersecurity awareness month in the workplace permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>How to Implement Cybersecurity Awareness Month in the Workplace?</h2>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.cisa.gov/cybersecurity-awareness-month\">Cybersecurity Awareness Month</a> is a great time to think about how you can help make your employees and the people around you more aware of security.
