## SSO

**Note:**

SSO is an enterprise feature, which means not all projects use it.

Single Sign-On (SSO) is an authentication method that simplifies the login process by allowing users to access multiple applications or systems with just one set of login credentials.

Companies often choose to use SSO because it improves security by centralizing user authentication and enabling stronger password policies. Using SSO, companies can implement strong access controls, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive information.

As an Editor using Hygraph for your work, SSO allows you to connect via your company domain or mail address.

If your company uses SSO, access [Hygraph](https://app.hygraph.com/), enter your work email and click on `Continue`. Hygraph will detect that your company has SSO enabled and will redirect you to your company's SSO.

The specific steps for SSO vary depending on the implementation and the SSO provider chosen by your company. **Please contact your team lead for specific steps on how to log into your company's SSO.**
