🌟 Feature Spotlight 🌟
🌐🔒 Multiple Sub-domains in SSO
Does your organisation operate across multiple sub-domains, with users holding email addresses such as user@mt.company.com?
If so, you'll be pleased to know that now, our SSO platform supports authentication across sub-domains, delivering a truly unified sign-on experience for more complex digital environments.
Whether your services are distributed across customer portals, administrative interfaces, knowledge bases or regional sites, users can sign in once and securely access everything they need, without repeated authentication prompts.
