Boost Security and Productivity with Single Sign-On (SSO)

Single Sign-On (SSO) for KRYSTAL DMS - Enterprise Edition offers a seamless and secure way to sign in to your document management system, eliminating the hassle of managing multiple usernames and passwords. With SSO, users can access KRYSTAL DMS quickly and easily, while ensuring that your organization's internal security remains top-notch.

As businesses move toward more cloud-based solutions, SSO simplifies authentication and streamlines access control. By integrating KRYSTAL DMS with your existing authentication system, you can reduce login-related issues and improve overall productivity, all while strengthening the security of your enterprise data.


Key Benefits:

  • Simplified User Access: Say goodbye to multiple logins and passwords. Single Sign-On enables users to access KRYSTAL DMS using their existing corporate credentials, reducing friction and improving the user experience.
  • Enhanced Security: With SSO, security is enhanced by reducing the risk of password fatigue. Employees will no longer need to reuse passwords or maintain weak ones for multiple applications. The integration with SAML 2.0 ensures that your system meets the highest security standards.
  • Faster Onboarding and Offboarding: New employees can be quickly granted access, and when they leave the organization, their credentials can be revoked across multiple systems in one action, significantly reducing the time and effort required for onboarding and offboarding.
  • Time and Cost Savings: By minimizing the need for users to remember numerous passwords, your IT team can focus on more important tasks. Plus, the streamlined sign-in process improves productivity, as employees spend less time managing credentials.
  • Seamless Integration: KRYSTAL DMS integrates seamlessly with your existing authentication systems using the SAML 2.0 protocol, ensuring that you can easily manage authentication and security policies without the need for complex reconfiguration.
  • Comprehensive Logging and Reporting: SSO provides detailed logging and reporting, allowing administrators to track access attempts, monitor usage patterns, and detect suspicious activities. This enhances both security and compliance efforts.

How It Works:

  1. Easy Integration with Authentication Systems

    KRYSTAL DMS uses the SAML 2.0 protocol to integrate with your organization's authentication system. Once configured, users can sign in to KRYSTAL DMS using their existing corporate credentials, eliminating the need for multiple usernames and passwords.

  2. Centralized Authentication

    The user is authenticated through your organization's centralized authentication provider (such as Active Directory, Okta, Microsoft 365, Google SSO or any SAML 2.0 compatible system). This means that any access or credential changes (like password resets) are handled within the authentication system, ensuring consistency across all platforms.

  3. Secure and Efficient Access

    After successful authentication, users are automatically granted access to KRYSTAL DMS without having to sign in again. This saves time and reduces the risk of login errors or unauthorized access.

  4. Audit and Compliance Tracking

    Every login attempt, successful or failed, is logged within the system. This provides valuable insights for security teams and helps ensure compliance with industry regulations by maintaining detailed access records.
