Single Sign-On (SSO) allows users to access multiple applications with one set of login credentials. When a user logs in through an identity provider (IdP), the IdP authenticates the user and sends a secure token to connected service providers (SPs). This eliminates the need for multiple logins, improving convenience and security.<\/p><\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t

OTP is a one-time password used for secure authentication. TOTP generates time-based passwords that expire after a set period, while HOTP creates counter-based passwords valid until used. The key difference: TOTP relies on time synchronization, ensuring timely access, whereas HOTP depends on an incremental counter for password generation.<\/p><\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t

Adaptive Authentication is a security approach that dynamically adjusts authentication requirements based on contextual factors like user behavior, location, device, or risk level. For example, unusual login activity may trigger additional verification steps. This method enhances security by balancing user convenience with protection against unauthorized access.<\/p><\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t
