MSPs are under pressure to maintain business continuity while ensuring that their clients’ security capabilities are not diminished in the face of growing cyber threats and IT staff shortages. So, what if you don’t have the staff or expertise to do it all? MSPs can save on security capabilities by using a security vendor’s managed services. This allows you to focus on your core competencies while outsourcing higher-level security management to the experts.

Single sign-on (SSO) is a tool that simplifies the authentication process by allowing users to log in and access various digital applications and services using a single set of credentials. This authentication solution works through a central service that authenticates users once and then provides an authentication token for the applications they wish to use. This token enables applications to verify user identity without users having to re-enter their credentials.
