Introduction

Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication process that allows a user to access multiple applications with one set of login credentials regardless of the application’s platform, technology, or domain. This allows ease of use for the end users and ease of management for administrators.


Concept

To provide high interoperability with your existing organizational IT systems, VIDIZMO offers the most flexible options for you to integrate with a wide range of single sign-on authentication providers, including:

1. Directory services such as Azure AD, ADFS, AWS, etc.

2. Identity Access Management (IAM) services such as Okta, OneLogin, Ping, Centrify

3. Third-party login services such as Facebook, Google, Office 365, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.


For integration, VIDIZMO can use your organization’s existing identity providers to authenticate employees to use VIDIZMO video platform. To achieve this, VIDIZMO supports OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication protocol.


With the ability to integrate with any identity provider, VIDIZMO offers your organization high flexibility and low cost of SSO integration with an identity provider of your choice. Not only this but with an app model SSO integration, VIDIZMO makes the integration as easy as enabling/ disabling your identity provider from within the platform administrator interface in minutes.


Single Sign-On Apps in VIDIZMO are as follows:


VIDIZMO Login

Enabling this option allows your Portal users to login to the system using their VIDIZMO-specific credentials. These are the credentials used by the user while registering for the Portal or by the Manager or administrator while adding users to the Portal. By default, this option is enabled and cannot be disabled if any other SSO app is not configured on your Portal.


Azure Active Directory (AD)

Azure Active Directory (AD) is a comprehensive cloud-based multi-tenant service from Microsoft that helps you avail identity and access management capabilities for applications running in Microsoft Azure or on-premises. In addition to the added security due to the multi-factor authentication and conditional access, its single sign-on gives enterprises an option to integrate with many cloud applications such as Office 365, Salesforce, Dropbox etc.
