SINGLE SIGN-ON
Problem
Our clients wanted their customers to be automatically logged into the Magento site if they were previously authenticated by the primary website or portal – very common in B2B where there may be multiple websites and portals. Our client had several different websites and an Identity Access Management system to centrally manage credentials.
Solution
We developed a single sign-on (SSO) solution that allows Magento and our client’s primary website to share session information resulting in single sign-on for all websites. An authenticated customer on the primary website can jump over to the Magento site and is automatically seamlessly logged in. The authentication or handshake between the two systems ensures that the customer is authenticated.

Features
Single sign-on (SSO) is a session and user authentication service that permits a user to use one set of login credentials (e.g., name and password) to access multiple applications like Magento and Salesforce.com
– SSO allows our clients to manage the increasing number of users across a whole ecosystem of applications and services
– Magento security is enforced and intact
– Reduces calls to Customer Service due to password problems if customers only have to worry about one username and password.
– Simplify access and authentication for customers by allowing them to login to Magento using Facebook, Google or Amazon credentials.
