Question AAAI-01

Does your solution support single sign-on (SSO) protocols for user and administrator authentication?

Standard Guidance

Answer "Yes" only if user AND administrator authentication is supported. If partially supported, answer "No." Ensure you respond to any guidance in the Additional Information column.

Answering "NO"

Describe plans to support strong authentication practices.

Answering "YES"

Describe how strong authentication is enforced (e.g., complex passwords, multifactor tokens, certificates, biometrics, aging requirements, re-use policy).

Reason for Question

This question is to set account management expectations for the institution. A system that can integrate with existing, vetted solutions has its advantages and may have less administrative overhead. Also, adherence to standards here gives credit to other standards-oriented questions/responses.

Follow-Up Inquiries

Follow-up inquiries for IAM requirements will be institution/implementation specific.
