Give your users secure, one-click access to everything. No more password overload.
THE CHALLENGE
Every account login is a prime target for attackers. The more credentials you manage, the bigger the breach window.
Frequent sign-ons, password resets, and account recoveries slow your business down and lead to risky workarounds.
Modern SaaS, on‑prem apps, and legacy systems rarely speak the same language. Connecting them with custom solutions is costly and brittle.
THE SOLUTION
Sign on once. Access everything. Let Ping be your identity and access control plane and broker secure, standards-based, one-click access to everything your users need.
Built for modern identity, Ping plugs into your stack and scales with you. Whether your apps are in the cloud, bound to legacy systems, or even custom to your org, we unify authentication behind the scenes to keep the experience fast and friction-free. Less risk. More control.
Simple, secure access for users. Centralized control for IT.
Stronger Security
Fewer passwords means fewer breaches. Centralized authentication using modern standards means a smaller attack surface.
Better UX = Happier Users
One login. Fewer prompts. Fast self-service password resets and account recovery keep people moving.
Lower IT Costs
Fewer user helpdesk tickets. Fewer app-by-app configuration. One authentication policy engine to manage it all.
Security, scale, and interoperability that’s built to work with your tech stack.

New to SSO? Modernizing an older setup? We’ve got clear answers to common questions about standards, deployment, and best practices.
The specifics depend on the SSO protocol that’s used, but generally speaking, an SSO token is a short-lived, digitally signed package issued by your identity provider after you sign on. Apps use this token to verify who you are and what you’re allowed to do so you don’t have to re-enter your password for each app.
Yes. SSO offers a secure way for users to access multiple applications without having to re-enter their credentials every time. This reduces the number of opportunities for a bad actor to take advantage of a compromised password since each user only has to sign on once. SSO systems also exchange secure SSO tokens instead of sending passwords back and forth, which keeps sensitive information even more secure.
Ultimately, the implementation method depends on your environment, but the process follows a common pattern. First, you set up a central identity provider (like Ping), connect it to your directory, and configure trust with your applications using open standards. Then, you can manage authentication policies like sign-on, account linking, MFA, and adaptive access from one place. We can help you find the best approach for your systems and guide you through setup.
You may hear terms like single sign-on (SSO) and federated identity management (FIM) mentioned together, but they’re not the same thing. SSO enables users to access multiple applications and resources within a single organization or domain after signing on once. FIM extends that concept across multiple domains or organizations, allowing different identity systems to trust each other—so users can sign on once and access apps managed by partners or external providers. Another unique term is cloud SSO, which centralizes access to cloud-based applications and services, enabling users to authenticate once with a trusted identity provider for all their SaaS and cloud resources.
