Streamlining Access for Users with Single Sign-On (SSO) in Vygo
Implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) in Vygo simplifies user access, enabling students and staff to log in using their existing university credentials. This integration reduces the need for separate account creation and passwords and enhances the overall user experience by streamlining access.
Benefits of SSO Integration:
- Enhanced User Experience: Users enjoy seamless access to Vygo without the hassle of managing additional login credentials, improving convenience and user satisfaction.
- Improved Security: Leveraging existing university authentication systems through SSO reduces the risk of password-related security breaches, ensuring a more secure environment for users.
- Streamlined Account Management: Universities can centrally manage user access and permissions across platforms, promoting consistency and enhancing security protocols.
How to implement SSO Integration?
- Collaboration with Technical Teams: Vygo's engineering team collaborates closely with the institution's technical teams to set up SSO efficiently. Your Vygo account manager facilitates this collaboration, ensuring a smooth integration process.
- Pre-requisites: Before initiating SSO setup, ensure completion of necessary processes such as IT/Risk Assessment and Legal Contract formalities. This ensures alignment and compliance before technical implementation.
Understanding SAML 2.0:
SAML 2.0 (Security Assertion Markup Language) is the technical protocol Vygo uses to configure and support SSO functionalities. It provides a standardised framework for authentication and authorisation processes, ensuring secure and seamless user access.

By implementing SSO in Vygo using SAML 2.0, institutions can optimise user access, enhance security measures, and streamline account management processes, contributing to a more efficient and secure user experience within the platform.
