Assignment 2: Single Sign-On Access
Due Week 7 and worth 80 points
Some business and organizational network infrastructures consist of
multiple systems from the same or different vendors to provide,
conduct, process, and execute various business functions. Some
employees must access one or more of these systems using valid
access credentials (username and password). Logging in and out of
each system whenever access is desired can become a problem for
most users. Businesses and organizations have resorted to using
Single Sign-On (SSO) for user authentication and authorization.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
1. Analyze at least five (5) problems experienced by employees in an
enterprise where Single Sign-On (SSO) has not been implemented.
2. Some businesses and organizations use Active Directory (AD) to
provide SSO access to the enterprise. Analyze the advantages and
disadvantages of using AD for SSO access.
3. Some businesses and organizations use Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LADP) to provide SSO access to the enterprise.
Analyze the advantages and disadvantages of using LADP for SSO
access.
4. Compare and contrast a Kerberos-based SSO configuration to a
smart card based configuration in terms of:
1. configurability
2. established standards
