Single Sign-On Provides Value to Both End-Users and IT Administrators

Enterprises have quickly realized that a typical corporate user may have up to 20 usernames and passwords to log in to the applications they need to do their jobs (Burton Group). For end-users this means keeping sticky notes on their desks to remember each of them.

When these applications are running on Linux and UNIX servers it complicates matters even further for the IT administrators responsible for user management in an Active Directory environment. There is the burden of time spent managing users locally, a significant amount of help desk calls for password resets and an unsecured network.

Likewise Enterprise provides cross-platform single sign-on solution for enterprise Database applications that support Kerberos and LDAP including: MySQL and Oracle.

Likewise Enterprise allows administrators to leverage their existing Active Directory infrastructure to reduce the costs of user management and provisioning while increasing the security of their network. Using the centralized Active Directory console administrators can do password and account management and have granular control of privileges and user access.
