Central user account
Core user data, account status and a consistent profile are kept in one place.
Solution example
SSO — Central Login & Access Management
The solution enables one sign-in across multiple applications together with central control of users, roles and permissions. Access to individual systems can be managed in one place instead of separately inside each application.

Problem
Access becomes costly when each application keeps its own account and its own login flow
When users and administrators need to handle several separate access mechanisms, the number of manual changes, support requests and inconsistencies across applications grows.
- 01Several applications require separate accounts or separate sign-ins.
- 02Roles and permissions are managed in multiple places.
- 03Granting or removing access requires changes across several systems.
- 04It is difficult to keep access rules consistent between applications.
Login answers the question: who is the user. Access answers the question: what is the user allowed to reach.
How the SSO workflow works
From one login to access across multiple applications
The user sees a simple sign-in path, while the organisation gains one control point for accounts, roles and access.
-
01
User
The user starts from one shared sign-in point.
-
02
Login
Credentials are entered once instead of separately for each application.
-
03
Identity verification
The system verifies identity and prepares the correct access context.
-
04
Role / permissions
The user role and assigned permissions define what can be accessed.
-
05
Application choice
The user moves into an application connected to the central sign-in model.
-
06
Access
The application receives confirmation that the user may reach the correct part of the system.
-
07
Session / logout
The user session ends within one controlled access model.
What the solution covers
What the solution covers
The scope focuses on sign-in, users and access management across connected applications.
One sign-in across multiple applications
Connected applications use one shared login point instead of separate screens and accounts.
Roles and permissions
Access is based on the role and baseline permissions assigned to the user.
Services and assignments
The user can access selected applications connected to the central login model.
Administrator workspace
Administrators can find accounts, change status and manage baseline roles or access.
Reset and access recovery
Access recovery follows one predictable process instead of being handled separately in each application.
User and access control
One place to control users and access
The mockups show the login flow, the user profile and account administration without referring to a specific client implementation.

One login
The user does not need to go through a separate login flow for each connected application.
More consistent roles and permissions
The role and baseline access can be controlled from one place instead of several separate panels.
Easier granting and removing of access
Account status or access changes can be handled centrally.
Fewer separate login mechanisms
Several applications can use one account model and one access path.
The mockups use neutral labels and show only the workflow logic.

Solution example — SSO & access management
This is a solution example for organisations that want to simplify sign-in across several applications and centrally control users, roles and access. The material shows the confirmed scope of sign-in and access control across connected systems.
