Why SSO matters for an organization
Beyond convenience, SSO moves access management to a single point.
- Centralized onboarding and offboarding: a disabled account loses access to every connected service
- No extra password to create, remember, or enforce
- Login traceability stays on the company's identity-provider side
SSO on a Videas channel
On a Videas channel, SSO is configured through SAML or OpenID Connect — two open standards supported by most enterprise identity providers. You then create viewer groups, and each one only sees the part of the catalog that concerns them. Outside a channel, access to a video is set individually: public, private, unlisted, or password-protected.
