IAM integration and single sign-on at faktoora
In the constantly changing landscape of digital transformation, managing user identities plays a crucial role. At faktoora, a SaaS solution for XRechnung and other electronic invoices, this aspect is important. That is why we are pleased to introduce the integration of external identity and access management (IAM) systems for our customers.
IAM integration: a significant step towards security and efficiency
IAM integration is a key element that enables companies to optimise their security structure. This is achieved by using an external IAM system to authenticate and authorise users in another application, such as our faktoora platform. A decisive advantage here is that all user and access data is managed centrally in your own IAM system, so you stay in control of users and permissions.
Another essential feature of IAM integration is support for single sign-on (SSO). With this function, your employees can use their existing internal company login details to access faktoora. This simplifies the login process, improves the user experience and reduces the security risks that often come with poor password practices.
Who benefits from IAM integration?
Integrating an IAM system is particularly beneficial for medium-sized to large companies or organisations that manage a large number of users or applications. However, smaller companies that want to optimise their IT infrastructure and ensure that their data is protected can also benefit from IAM integration. Regardless of your company's size or sector, IAM integration can help to simplify user management and access control.
Integrating your users into faktoora: a practical example
Integrating your users into faktoora is straightforward and designed to be user-friendly. Suppose you use a common IAM system such as Active Directory (AD). Once you have informed us, we set up a secure connection between AD and our platform. The connection uses common open standards for authentication and authorisation. Once the integration is complete, your users can use their existing company login details to log in to faktoora and access their XRechnung and other electronic invoices.
