Overview

Description

SSO allows you to centrally manage access to various AWS accounts and business applications, as well as give users with single sign-on access to all of their allocated accounts and applications from a single location. You can easily manage access and user rights to all of your AWS Organizations accounts using AWS SSO. SSO automatically configures and maintains all necessary rights for your accounts, with no further configuration required in the individual accounts. User rights can be assigned based on typical job functions, and these permissions can be customised to match your individual security needs. Many commercial applications, such as Salesforce, Box, and Microsoft 365, have built-in connections with AWS SSO.You can create and maintain user IDs in AWS SSO's identity store, or connect to an existing identity source such as Microsoft Active Directory, Okta Universal Directory, or Azure Active Directory, using AWS SSO (Azure AD). AWS SSO allows you to choose user attributes from your identity source, such as cost centre, title, or locale, and then use them for AWS attribute-based access control. AWS SSO works with AWS Organizations, allowing you to choose one or more accounts from your organisation and offer users access to them. AWS SSO uses AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles and rules to enable you manage access across all of your AWS accounts in one place. Individual accounts do not require any additional settings. You may provide people access to all of the AWS accounts utilised by an application or a team with just a few clicks. Read more
