Single sign-on

SSO means only needing one set of credentials that you enter once to access all resources enabled to use SSO in your organization; you are not prompted to sign in again.

In addition, user provisioning to apps is accelerated with just-in-time access for new hires and temporary staff and allows a governed leavers process when users no longer need access to an app.

You configure Azure AD as the trusted IDP for each app you wish to enable SSO through a centralized portal. These apps can be cloud apps, public cloud provider platforms, as well as on-premises apps. You can enforce secure access with identity protection through MFA and Conditional Access, as well as risk-based access policies.

In this section, we looked at SSO. The following section looks at MFA and Conditional Access.
