Single Sign On (SSO) enables users to access multiple applications at one time without remembering a different password for each. Surprisingly, 92% of users reported that they had uninstalled an app after forgetting their specific username and password, while a third claimed that they did this frequently [1]. By implementing SSO tools, your team can reduce the number of app logins and receive a ton of marketing benefits, including assured security and productivity for your business.
What Is AesirX Single Sign On (SSO)?
AesirX SSO is an Open Source single sign-on service which is freely accessible and developed in a decentralized way. By combining Web2 and Web3 technologies, AesirX SSO enables users to access various websites using a single set of credentials or a Web3 wallet integration. Especially with Web3 integration, users can access using e-wallets instead of setting up an account and remembering a password. Also, their identities and personal information will be hidden, ensuring no data misuse or information theft.

5 Key Benefits of AesirX SSO for your business
1. Enhanced security
Decreasing login to one set of credentials enhances business security on any device.
Without the aid of SSO, employees must log in to various accounts separately to access applications. Using separate passwords for various apps, security cannot be assured. A poll found that 59% of participants use the same password across multiple accounts and keep using it for as long as they can [2]. This is a great opportunity for cybercriminals to access websites with poor security systems. As long as hackers get access through one weakly secured web or app, they are likely to be able to access other corporate systems.
However, with AesirX SSO, a security token is generated for access to multiple accounts during a single login process. An SSO server becomes the single point of entry to offer greater security before users access apps or the web. In addition, using AesirX SSO allows network users to create passwords that are longer, harder to guess, and contain special characters for higher security, instead of just names or dates of birth.
Eliminating multiple logins enhances business security
2. Improved staff productivity
Given that 68% of workers toggle between apps up to 10 times an hour [3]. Due to the growing workload, employees are expected to use more and more applications or websites at work. Requiring individual identities for each app compels people to remember numerous passwords, and frankly, this is time-consuming and needless. Even if they decide to use 1 password for all apps, then as mentioned above, their security is at stake, and information is easily stolen. In this case, AesirX SSO can lessen that mental burden.
Each login takes less than 1 minute, but numerous logins done regularly during the day will mount up. Signing in once saves time and employees can spend that time completing other duties, giving more valuable benefits to the company, thereby enhancing productivity. Because there is no need to switch between numerous apps, employees save between 5 and 15 seconds per login.
3. 1-click consent via web3 wallet
Web2 is made up of Front-end, Back-end, and Database. With Web2 authentication providers, users can integrate with common social networking and cloud providers to authenticate their users based on AesirX roles. This means they can access applications (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.) via one single set of credentials including username and password.
Meanwhile, Web3’s structure has become more sophisticated, made up of blockchain and other elements. The introduction of blockchain and Web3 gives users greater control and allows them to execute more acts online.
AesirX SSO’s Web3 wallet integrations use Concordium blockchain zero knowledge ID technology, which is an authentication protocol used to confirm digital identities, and therefore offers an added layer of security while allowing users to remain private.
Moreover, the Concordium technology enables visitors to a site to give consent with just ‘1 click.’ Users have the power to choose if and how their data will be utilized. The data is collected in real-time once they give the website their consent in order to forecast or personalize their experience.
But why use Web3 when Web2 is already available?
Before, without Web3 technology, many websites tracked your data without your consent via third-party cookies. You had no idea what information websites had obtained about you, how they planned to use it, or even that you were being tracked and that data about you was being stolen in some cases.
With Web3 wallet integration, users can connect their wallets to provide Web3 based-authentication using different networks (Cross-Site Analytics). Web3 provides extremely high security, allowing users to access all web interfaces through personal wallets (no passwords required). Moreover, users won’t know each other's identities, thereby further strengthening network security.

4. Regulatory compliance
The GDPR, or General Data Protection Regulation, is Europe's top privacy regulation about data protection and privacy for all individuals worldwide. Any businesses that are not compliant will be subject to harsh fines.
AesirX SSO is unique and a part of a ground-breaking series of marketing technology solutions, as opposed to the usual practice of illegal third-party tracking cookies being used to gather customer data for commercial gain.
Ensuring compliance with the GDPR, AesirX’s privacy-first SSO solution is designed to defend against systematic abuse in marketing. The SSO service is built on a platform that only ever collects and stores first-party data - plus never uses data without users consent.
5. Decreased IT helpdesk costs
Employees are more likely to forget passwords when each app requires a unique login, which results in a backlog of help tickets for password resets. 50% of IT helpdesk calls are requested to reset passwords [4]. This process takes up considerable time and money for IT teams because the fee to reset a password typically exceeds $70 [5].
Beyond these savings, AesirX SSO frees up the IT team to work on higher-level issues. Users just need to remember one set of credentials with SSO, which lowers the volume of help tickets. Additionally, AesirX SSO enables users to change their own passwords, negating the requirement for IT intervention.
