Managing multiple logins across platforms is a frustrating experience for users and a security risk for businesses. Single Sign-On (SSO) solves this by allowing users to authenticate once and access multiple systems without repeatedly entering credentials.
Instead of maintaining separate usernames and passwords for every platform, SSO leverages a central Identity Provider (IdP) to validate users. Traditionally, businesses use Google, Azure, or Okta as IdPs, but in our case, NetSuite itself acts as the IdP, ensuring that all customer authentication originates from a single source of truth.
The user enters their credentials, but they are validated against NetSuite, not a third-party database.
