Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) is a popular ERP tool for business and financial operations that uses a combination of usernames and passwords to authenticate users. This form of authentication has known weaknesses that attackers can exploit since, by default, Oracle EBS does not provide any added security measures like multifactor authentication (MFA). Authentication gets more complex when it comes to the management of different digital identities including employees, stakeholders, clients, etc. In this blog, we will discuss three ways to streamline authentication, manage identity and enable granular access control in Oracle EBS.
Enhancing User Productivity With Streamlined Authentication
A streamlined single sign-on (SSO) process saves time, increases productivity and removes password management hassles while ensuring that only authorized individuals can access sensitive information, systems or applications. By implementing SSO in Oracle EBS, users are provided with centralized authentication, eliminating the need to enter their login credentials each time they switch between different applications or systems. To implement SSO, you need an identity provider (IDP) which will create a trusted relationship with the service provider (SP) or app (in this case, Oracle EBS). The Oracle EBS SSO increases productivity among your employees who use Oracle EBS in combination with other apps.
