CASE STUDY Noon is the Middle East’s homegrown online marketplace that is pushing the boundaries of e-commerce in the region. With an extensive range of goods available on its website ranging from electronics to fashion and from beauty to sports products, there are few sectors that it is not involved with. Like many businesses its cybersecurity is a top priority, that’s why it has chosen to deploy the identity platform OneLogin so potential threats can be identified quickly and effectively dealt with. OneLogin SSO has proven to be especially valuable in increasing security and streamlining processes including onboarding. One Secure SSO Portal for All Apps has also demonstrated its ability to increase productivity while keeping data secure. With single sign-on users only have to enter one set of credentials to access their web apps in the cloud and behind the firewall – via desktops, smartphones and tablets. This foundational identity and access management (IAM) measure is a first step in building trusted experiences for an enterprise’s workforce, customers and partners. OneLogin’s policy-driven password security, multi-factor authentication and context aware access management ensure that only authorised users get access to sensitive data. Users can implement more demanding password policies such as required length, complexity and restrictions on password reuse, as well as session timeout and password reset self-service policy to heighten protection without impeding their users. The single sign-on services provided by OneLogin have proven imperative to rolling out new applications to whole organisations, regardless of the location or time zone. Customers have found that not only has it helped them simplify an evolving estate of applications but thanks to OneLogin they can also look to integrate more software with complete confidence in the future. Secure and unified endpoint management OneLogin Desktop is a new kind of endpoint management. Users can leverage the secure profiles of laptop and desktop computers enrolled with the OneLogin Cloud Directory. Once users have logged into their secure profiles with their OneLogin Cloud Directory credentials, they can directly access all their apps via the OneLogin SSO portal. In other words, once users are logged into their operating system, they don’t need to login again to access corporate apps, freeing up their time while strengthening security. Multiple logins OneLogin’s sign-on authentication system lets users create any number of logins to the same type of application. If a business has five WordPress sites or two Google Apps accounts, OneLogin’s Trusted Experience Platform makes them available with one password, one click. If a business has different staging and production environments, multiple login functionality is a real time-saver. Social login Businesses can allow end-users to login to OneLogin using their Social Identity Provider credentials from services such as Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and Twitter. This streamlines the user experience by removing the need to create and remember a new password. OneLogin has made it easy for OneLogin admins to implement Social Login.
