Dear Members of the Press
SSO functionality has been newly added to "YubiOn Portal," a two-factor authentication service developed and provided by Soft Giken Co., Ltd (President: Norio Fujita, established in 1983).
The service was launched as "YubiOn Portal SSO" on March 17, 2022.
Remote work is spreading rapidly as part of the work style reform in the corona wreck. Among them, an increasing number of companies are beginning to consider the introduction of IDaaS (cloud-type ID management and integrated authentication service) for external linkage of cloud services and internal systems. "YubiOn Portal SSO" was born as a service to meet such demands.
By using the function of the "YubiOn Portal SSO" service, you can use each service without authentication by simply logging in to "YubiOn Portal" once, which improves convenience. In addition, when logging in to "YubiOn Portal", two-factor authentication with a password and authentication device YubiKey is enforced, so security can be strengthened. Accounts for internal use, services used, and YubiKeys can also be managed in an integrated manner, leading to a reduction in management costs.
[Benefits of introducing YubiOn Portal SSO]

"YubiOn Portal" can force users to perform two-factor authentication using the authentication device YubiKey, which can reduce security risks due to password leaks.
3. Integrated management
Users, YubiKeys, PCs, applications to be used, etc. can be managed in an integrated manner on the "YubiOn Portal" side. Also, by dividing users into groups, it is possible to set applications to be accessed all at once.
4. Compatible apps
"YubiOn Portal SSO" supports applications using SAML 2.0. There are multiple templates on the site, but you can also register applications that are not in the templates.
