Tags: management

Overview This Spire Research Report, authored by Research Director Pete Lindstrom and sponsored by Imprivata, explains how four myths that were once associated with single sign-on (SSO) are now being debunked by newer, more robust SSO solutions. The paper tackles these important questions and more:

  • Is true single sign-on really attainable?
  • Does SSO increase or decrease opportunities for attack?
  • Is there ROI in SSO?
  • Are customers happy with their SSO solutions?
Download the paper to read "The Spire Verdict" on each of these questions and to learn why advances in SSO functionality are enabling today's enterprises to finally embrace SSO for their identity management needs.
