Implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) in Healthcare
Guests: Ray Madril – Senior Director of Innovation and Engineering, Healthcast
The negative impact of data breaches and the need to implement stronger data security has spurred a rise in adopting single sign-on (SSO) technology in healthcare. One of the major advantages of single sign-on is a reduction in the number of passwords staff needs to remember. Once staff logs in to an application that’s part of the single sign-on system, they can access any other application supported by single sign-on without signing in again. However, SSO solutions are designed to not only provide a higher level of data security, but to also create workflow efficiencies and alleviate the stress and pressures of adhering to strict security protocols by providing a seamless sign on experience for clinical staff.
