1Password, the frontrunner in human-centric security and privacy, recently announced the launch of Unlock with Single Sign-On (SSO). Now, enterprise customers can unlock their 1Password accounts using Okta with Duo and Azure AD to follow in the coming months. With deeper integrations into existing IT workflows, Unlock with SSO enables IT teams to improve their security posture while minimizing the everyday difficulties and stress associated with employee logins.
Steve Won, Chief Product Officer at 1Password, said, "Securing employees at scale is no small task. At 1Password, we believe that the foundation of enterprise security is secure employees, and we're driven by the principle that the safe thing must be easy by default." He added, "SSO plays a central role in enterprise security. Unlock with SSO was designed with a trusted device model, so that even if a user's identity provider credentials are compromised, 1Password ensures attackers won't be able to access customers' vault."

In a Total Economic Impact (TEI) study commissioned and published by 1Password, Forrester Consulting revealed that a composite organization comprised of companies with experience using 1Password experienced a 206% return on investment (ROI) and a benefit of $1.3 million over three years. Unlock with SSO enhances employee and IT efficiency and productivity, where the return on investment is most evident.
Unlock with SSO is intended to integrate with existing workflows and assist organizations in securing their employees across any authentication process of their choosing. Fully integrated solutions, such as 1Password, consolidate authentication in a single location to complete the security architecture of a company.
