How SSO Streamlines Identity Management to Improve Healthcare Workflows

Digital health tools can give clinicians insights at their fingertips, but cumbersome workflows for login and access often lead to frustration. In recent years, hospitals and health systems have embraced the agility of single sign-on technology to let users sign in once and, upon authentication, gain access to all of the applications they’re authorized to use.The flexibility and agility this provides is a win for both clinical and security teams, according to Brandon Traffanstedt, senior director of the global technology office for CyberArk. SSO can augment identity and access management (IAM) strategies, letting security departments centralize robust policies for least-privileged access controls without putting the burden on end users to recall complex passwords.
