Single Sign-On (SSO) and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) have moved from "recommended" to the minimum baseline for any company that handles sensitive data or access to critical systems.

SSO centralizes login: one username and password (or authentication method) for all tools. MFA requires a second factor — app on the phone, token, biometrics — drastically reducing the risk of breach even if the password leaks.

Together, they simplify the user experience and increase security. Zenun designs and operates IdP (Identity Provider) with SSO and MFA for dozens of companies, in compliance with LGPD and sector regulations.
