Inorganization every day employees login their system and use different username and password to access different services to complete there tasks, remembering different username and password combination is diffcult,these system are generally intranetwork servers or cloud based.If employee leaves organization removing these different information is a challenging task for IT department,if new employees comes in organization giving different new username and password for each service is a big headach ae.

To solve the above problem of managing different idetities companies and organizations implement a new cloud based identity management technoque called identity as a service.









Identity as a service or UDaas is identity maangement technique uses single identity to access multiple services instead of using multiple identities.In identity as a service user or emplyee uses single identity to login into system only one time and uses different services to complete its task.Identity as a service uses single sign on (SSO) software to login into sytem and SSO maanges the authentication.

Using identity as a service user get single sign on touses services like website validation,transactions,participants in transaction,access to directory services,registration and authentication,identity management,profile managemnt,risk monitoring,event monitoring,feederated servicces etc.

Single Sign On (SSO)

Companies and organizations solve the problem of using different identities to use different services ina ssytem by using Single Sign On allow user to login only one time with its pne idemtity and access all services.

In Single Sign On has a authentication server or central system which manage this single identuty to access different application of the system or intranetwork servers.

Example of Singl Sign On

The common example of SSO is googleaccount,when one user login to any google product like gmail,it logined automatically to google account which provide access to other google products like youtube,google+,google search console,google analytics etc.All these happens because google account server maintains a cookie when logined int gmail,if user access another google product google account servers validate the existing cookie and give access to other google products.
